Supporting the Training of Doctors for Christ-Centered Health Care in Africa
What is the Call To HEAL?
The Call to HEAL Scholarship Program provides individuals from economically challenged backgrounds in Africa an opportunity to pursue medical education in their home countries, contributing to the health workforce needed to address the prevalent medical challenges in their communities and regions.
The program provides $1,000 annually for medical texts, tuition, and supplies. Call to HEAL Scholars graduate to become members of a mission-driven community of doctors who embody the values of Mission 1414, Inc. and walk in the path of Christ to offer compassionate care to their patients.
Call to HEAL scholars are connected to missionary hospitals and clinics for volunteering, mentorship, and other service opportunities in medical missions. Through this initiative, Mission 1414, Inc. supports the training of doctors in Africa who will invest their talent and resources in raising future generations of doctors for clinical needs in the mission field.
