All proceeds go to the Syrian refugees. There will be two great speakers that have been on medical missions with SCM:

Rhenda Meiser, a humanitarian who was on the last mission

May Mardini, a physical therapist who was with us on previous missions and worked with the young men at the Spinal Cord Injury Clinic.

Hear their first hand experiences in dealing the the displaced Syrians in Jordan, plus many other speakers. Information about the situation in Jordan and Syria will be shared, and how you can continue to help. If you are interested in joining a medical mission with SCM, definitely go to hear  from Rhenda and May.
