What they found was even more desperate than they could have imagined. In just a ten day period Dr. Hickel watched several villagers die from preventable diseases and malnutrition. Dr. Jack Hickel came home convinced that his community could do something to help the people of Old Fangak. He gathered a group of friends together and formed the Alaska Sudan Medical Project now called Alaska Health Project South Sudan. After consulting with Dr. Seaman and envisioning a clear mission, the initial goals of supporting the vital work of Dr. Seaman and improving the health of the local population was formed. The mission of AHPSS is simple: to "save lives through health, clean water, and agriculture." Our main goals are to build new health clinics, improve sanitation, provide access to clean water through water well drilling and other methods, and to support small agricultural projects to address frequent famines.
