A
volunteer health care outreach program serving people
in need around the globe.
SafariCare:
SCI and SCIF, like so many organizations, put forth
enormous effort each year to help improve the quality
of life throughout the world. We are proud of SafariCare’s
annual humanitarian efforts and contributions, such
as our most recent donation of over $50,000 to the Katrina
Relief Fund.
Cooperation
with international governments for this and other ongoing
SarariCare missions is excellent; however, transportation
and shipment of donated supplies can become costly and
may temporarily delay deliveries. An innovative approach
to help alleviate this problem is the use of “SafariCare
blue bags,” which have been successful and have gained
membership support.
These
blue bags are filled by chapters with medical, educational,
and other relief supplies, which are then taken to remote
areas of the world by hunters who have planned hunts
in these regions. The supplies are delivered directly
to clinics and schools for doctors and teachers to utilize.
Fortunately, these bags are shipped as luggage to keep
both shipping time and costs at an absolute minimum.
