David Marks, MD, Board Member |
|
Dr. David Marks is a
California native and a graduate of Georgetown School of Medicine.
When he chose a career in medicine he knew he wanted to use his
talents to help the underserved. In addition to his trips to
Sudan, he has also travelled to help patients in Peru along the
Amazon, New Orleans after Katrina and Haiti with his wife Colleen
after the devastating earthquake.
Dr. Marks became involved with JumpStart Sudan following his first
trip to Akon in 2007 with another organization and good friend Big
Kenny of the country music duo Big & Rich. He was initially
asked to join the mission to care for those traveling; however, when
he arrived in Akon, he saw an immediate need to serve the villagers.
In 2009 Dr. Marks and his wife, Colleen, were able to return to Akon
to replenish vital medical supplies at the clinic and help organize
the process of how medicines were stored and dispensed. They
provided JSS with valuable feedback regarding the operations of the
clinic and needs of the patients. Shortly thereafter, Dr.
Marks was invited to join the JumpStart Sudan Board. |
