Project 8110 is a nonprofit organization co-founded in October 2009 by Tom Linder & Dr. Brian Evans. Our mission is simple: To provide training & support to healthcare providers in Sierra Leone (West Africa), to perform dental procedures & to dispense eyeglasses.
Project 8110 offers much-needed adult & childrens dentistry, general medical care & vision care to the poorest citizens in Sierra Leone, West Africa. In 2013, an Ebola outbreak occurred & Sierra Leone was its epicenter. This tragic plague resulted in almost 4,000 deaths within the country & over 11,000 in the region. With Sierra Leone already being one of the poorest nations in the world, the outbreak has been devastating to their economy. Sadly, it will take many years to regain their losses.
Project 8110 also provides the necessary guidance to healthcare providers. This includes educating them how to complete extractions & tooth restoration with simple fillings. They are taught using proper techniques & ethics, offering care at or above local standards. Sierra Leone has a population of seven million people & only seven registered dentists! To say the least, there is an incredible need for help. The majority of the citizens do not have access to dental care. Without much-needed dental care, many are suffering with infections & pain, relying on DIY dentistry. Many are also obtaining care from unqualified providers who worsen the infection & pain.
Project 8110 provides a simple optometry program that supplies eyeglasses, which are kindly donated by the Lions Club. In just fifteen minutes, the trainees are able to examine, prescribe, adjust & deliver eyeglasses to the patient. This amazing yet simple program makes a huge impact on the lives of those in Sierra Leone, many of whom have not had a clear vision for years.
Project 8110 assists in the work of Morningstar Clinic in the city of Bo in Sierra Leone. During the Ebola outbreak in 2013, many people avoided visiting medical clinics & hospitals due to concerns of contracting the virus. The clinic is now facing a significant burden as the citizens seek more care in the aftermath of the Ebola crisis.
