Volunteer Information

Emergency calls home from Mwandi?

An Iridium satellite phone is available for emergency use.  Cellular coverage is coming soon.  A cell tower is being constructed to serve the area (June 2005).

Want to establish an email list with other volunteers?

If you would like to be on an email distribution list for periodic information about what's happening in Mwandi, send a request to Fred Coates.  Your email address will only be used to keep you informed of events and needs at the Mwandi Hospital.  It will not be made available to anyone else (unless you specifically instruct us to do so).

Have any travel tips?

If you have any helpful hints or tips to share with others who will be traveling to Mwandi, send them here and we'll try to post them.  Fred Coates
