In 2019, Maddy’s family raised $4,000 in her memory, enabling YWAM Medical Ships – Australia & PNG (YWAM MS) to purchase essential medical equipment, including:
-
A drying cabinet for instruments used in eye surgeries aboard the MV YWAM PNG
-
Otoscopes
-
An emergency medical bag
As December 2024 marks 10 years since Maddy’s passing, her family is once again honouring her legacy. This year, funds raised will support the purchase of iPads for YWAM MS. These devices are used to keep detailed medical records during clinics conducted onboard the medical ship, in the dental trailer, and in remote village settings across PNG.
