Question

Jamef Bwelle suffered only a broken arm at first，but it finally developed into a hematoma. That would affect him for the rest of his life. Bwelle spent years taking his father to overerowded hospitals.

He because a doctor himself.And he started an organization，ASCOVIME. It travels into the countryside on weekends to provide free medical care. Since 2008，he and his group of volunteers have helpednearly 32,000 people.

Almost every Friday，his team jam into vans and travel to villages in need. In each trip they receive 500 people. Patients come on foot from 60 kilometers around the village for free treatment.
