When an Arizona dentist set out to ease pain in East Africa, he had no plans for adventure tourism. But what began as a mission to provide care turned into a creative solution that’s helping save lives, one safari at a time.
Dr. Mathew Jensen now runs Tapestry of Africa, a unique travel company where every trip funds real medical and dental care for people in need.
It's not charity for show, it's a model of sustainable giving powered by wanderlust.
In the video player above, ABC15's Cameron Polom shows how a dentist’s passion for helping others became a journey that’s healing far more than smiles.
