“Several hundred pounds of locally-purchased pharmaceuticals occupy our spare bedroom, awaiting transport to Charmika Schuster’s rural mobile medical clinics planned for 1000+ patients near Moshi, Tanzania. […] USA cost would likely be over $10,000, vs $3100 here. Charmika is quite meticulous to maximize efficiency of Global Mustard Seed Missions, and negotiating local drug prices is a big part of that, while it still injects economic stimulus into the local community.” – Dan Schuster
