Organization Global Orphan Foundation is an Indianapolis based non-profit with a global mission - to advocate on behalf of orphaned and vulnerable children worldwide and respond with action. We have witnessed firsthand the struggle to meet the basic needs of orphaned children in third-world and developing countries and are committed to easing that burden. We believe that all children deserve proper nutrition, access to healthcare, and educational opportunities. Bolingo Village Located in Democratic Republic of Congo, Bolingo Village is the signature project of GOF. By employing widowed women as licensed foster moms and building families with orphaned children, we are leveling the playing field for orphaned children in Congo and affording them the emotional, physical, and spiritual care that they need to thrive. Our sustainable children’s care village goes beyond meeting basic needs by providing access to education, a clinic for consistent medical care, a farm for balanced nutrition, clean running water, a loving foster family, and space to run, play and be kids. In short, Bolingo Village is a community that allows for a robust and abundant childhood with a bright future. Responsibilities GOF is looking for three to four medical professionals that would be available for meetings and via group text to help troubleshoot issues and questions as they arise at Bolingo Village. Examples of questions we may ask: * Confirmation of diagnosis or medical advice given to our team from DRC specialists. * Review of treatment plans for children with special conditions (Epilepsy, HIV, umbilical hernia, etc) Requirements: ● Experience in pediatrics would be helpful, but not required. ● Willingness to respond to US staff and board members questions within 48 hours. ● Agree to review children’s care plans and medical reports to check for issues or highlight missed opportunities for preventative care.
