Stephanie Oddi volunteered in various village eye care outreaches in Ghana for 4 weeks through the non-profit Unite for Sight. She performed visual acuity exams, dispensed medication, and worked with local volunteers to interview patients about their symptoms. She was exposed to bucket bathes, malaria, Ebola, cholera, and tro-tros, all of which are rarely seen in the United States. In only one month, Stephanie learned basic Twi (the language of many villages in Ghana), observed cataract, pterygium, and glaucoma surgeries, and became close to the local doctors, nurses, and volunteers. Though she lived in hotels for majority of her stay in Ghana, Stephanie still immersed herself in the Ghanaian culture by visiting local markets, talking to patients and shop owners, and frequenting local authentic eateries. During her free-time at outreaches, she spoke to the local volunteers about the differences in culture. These conversations focused mostly on religion, marriage, dancing, government, and money. Stephanie was fortunate enough to be in Ghana for the Ghana v. USA World Cup match and be a part of the celebrations that took place in the streets of Kumasi during those matches. Stephanie worked with three different clinics during her stay and travelled to the Volta Region, Kumasi, and Accra for outreaches, and on weekends, travelled to the Ashanti Palace, an alligator sanctuary, and spent hours wandering around the historic Cape Coast Castle, a castle used in the transportation of slaves on the Gold Coast of West Africa.
