Early today morning, the team of dentists and students from Kenya, the US, and Canada arrived at the TBI camp. The day was spent strategizing and charting the way forward on how to run the camp and maximize the services to be provided to the community. Jetlagged and tired, the team recoups to save their energy for setting up camp tomorrow.

Before the team arrived, TBI was honored to host Marsabit MP, Chachu Ganya, and Councillors from Illeret, Maikona, and North Horr. The group were given a tour of the camp and heard about the research and community work carried out at TBI.
