What does it mean to be internally displaced?

Internally displaced persons and citizens of last mile communities often have to travel miles to receive the healthcare they need. After a mothers long trek to a medical center in Cameroon, Elvis Ndansi untied a dead baby from the mothers back. A baby who had passed due to preventable and treatable condition - Malaria. Having grown up in a last mile community with his single mother, Elvis made it his mission to bring life-saving healthcare to these communities. On today's episode, Elvis Ndansi tells his remarkable story. Born and raised in Misaje, Elvis went straight to work at a farm after school every day. He drew inspiration from his mother, Rosaline Leh Ndansi, when she became a nurse assistant and he got to see the impact she made on the village.
