Why ask for a donation?
Providing aid and support to those in need requires a significant investment. It involves not only the financial aspect of purchasing tickets and accommodation but also the time and effort required to make a scouting journey firsthand (this is what I always called it). Additionally, having the knowledge of the area with trustworthy contacts who can validate real community needs (lots of folks unfortunately try to make money out of other’s needs) is crucial.
When you provide a donation, you are helping make a difference, and knowing that you are helping others is empowering. You will be notified of Dr.P’s upcoming visit and you will be able to have a chat live!
How to donate? easy, just enter www.paypal.com and click on send money and just type our email

It is a job to identify a place to visit, do research about the area and organization, investigate the project that is needed, and identify key people to work with on-site. Managing a designated trip means building a relationship with people and identifying who to hire to work with Dr.P along the way. Another important component of making things possible is to provide folks with the resources needed and definitely, a key component of the site, providing donations and when possible sustainable resources.

What I need? a new phone and a new computer! offgrid places wear the heck out of your equipment, being in the desert for so long ruined my laptop. I don’t have a camera…my old equipment can be donated and I will post when that “dream” is possible. I am the “camerawoman, editor, writer, photographer, traveler, website manager, graphic designer, (all with quotes of course!!) etc. This is a one-person shop hoping to leave some meaningful blueprint.
