Support DPT’s service trip to Uganda by eating at Burgerville April 15
We’re excited to announce that, in May of 2025, students and faculty from our Doctor of Physical Therapy program will be heading to Uganda for a medical service trip! Our well-established partnerships with local leaders in Uganda seek to meet the physical and educational needs that exist in these communities.
We will work alongside doctors, teachers and community leaders who have been our friends and partners for over 10 years. As we prepare to return, we need your help! This trip is being funded by donations and fundraisers, with our next one being through Burgerville on Tuesday, April 15.
Visit the Burgerville in Newberg that day and mention George Fox. You can also order ahead on the app and use the promo code GEORGEFOX.
In previous trips, we have seen kids and adults receive healthcare for the first time in their lives, after walking hours through rural Uganda to our large medical clinics. We have seen teenagers with cerebral palsy walk for the first time and even start playing soccer with friends.
We have helped Ugandans with amputations return to the professional world in previously lost careers. We have even saved the lives of kids with hydrocephalus, and helped adults with progressive cancers by identifying their condition and ensuring they get the medical care they need.
Thank you for your support! Contact Amanda Brandes at abrandes23@georgefox.edu if you have any questions.
