Dr. Sam Joseph visited the Project Rwanda operations

Dr. Sam Joseph visited the Project Rwanda operations this past February. He was in Kigali, the capital city to work with doctors from Northwest Medical in Seattle, Washington, performing much needed heart surgeries on Rwandans whose lives would be shortened without these surgeries.

Sam is also an avid cyclist and did not want to pass up on the opportunity to ride with Jock Boyer. When Dr. Sam spotted the PR Cargo Bike on the front porch of the house, he was so impressed he immediately thought of using the bike for two of his recent heart patients who needed monthly follow up care and had to travel over three hours on foot to get to the clinic.

He wrote about his experience with Project Rwanda and the help the cargo bike will give his patients in a recent blog:
