Kickstarter Campaign about a Ghana Health Clinic Documentary

Source: Katrina Moore Kickstarter

If you haven't already seen the Kickstarter Campaign about creating a documentary in Ghana about a health clinic, please check it out here! I recently had the opportunity to back/support and talk to the mastermind behind her project campaign, "Under the Mango Tree: Food, Health, and Love in Ghana"

With 72% already funded, they have only 9 days left to reach their goal. Please share the link and here is a snip of the campaign via the site:

"A documentary about Shekhinah Clinic, which offers free healthcare and meals to the mentally ill and handicapped of Tamale, Ghana. Dr. David Abdulai was born in Tamale, Ghana as one of 11 children, all of whom eventually died from curable diseases related to malnutrition. As an adolescent, he hitchhiked to southern Ghana to work on a farm and finish senior high school. Through the aid of scholarships, Dr. Abdulai was able to put himself through medical school. After studying and practicing medicine in the United Kingdom and Austria, Dr. Abdulai returned to his hometown of Tamale with his wife, Doris, to start Shekhinah Clinic, a free clinic for anyone who cannot afford medical care. Together, David and Doris Abdulai, along with a team of volunteers, provide healthcare and daily meals to over 200 of the city's destitute." -Katrina Moore.
