Global Health &
Safari Fellowship
The Global Health & Safari Fellowship is rooted in the Christian conviction that every person is created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27) and therefore worthy of dignity, compassion, and care. For followers of Christ, caring for the sick and vulnerable is both a professional responsibility and a sacred calling.
Through this fellowship, health professionals and students are invited to offer their time, skills, and experience in service to underserved communities in Uganda. In doing so, participants seek to live out Christ’s call to love our neighbors and to serve “the least of these” (Matthew 25:40), demonstrating compassion, humility, and love in action.
