Insufficient finances and training facilities have led to a desperate state of dental care in Malawi.-a country with fewer than 50 dentists for a population of 21.4 million people. That is an average of 1 dentist per every 428,000 people.

Since 2010 Rob Hampton and Claudia Sansone have been traveling to Malawi as volunteers. Initially to establish the first ever dental clinic at Daeyang Luke Hospital but then on a recurring basis to administer dental care, deliver supplies, and otherwise support the ongoing efforts to improve quality of life for the local villagers. Because of the efforts of UVT and their supporters the Daeyang Luke Hospital is able to provide training for 150 Dental Nurses from rural villages annually and sees an average of 5000 patients each year.

In 2014, Rob was among those honored by the Dalai Lama through the non-profit organization “Wisdom in Action" with the “Unsung Hero of Compassion” award for his philanthropic endeavors.

In 2015 UVT created a Medical grant program to assist local villagers with resources for life saving medical treatments and surgeries. In Malawi medical procedures like tooth extraction cost as little as $15 and tumor removal and treat coast $50. The most prominent donation is for malaria medication, with a cost of $10 per patient.
