The
Medical Mission
Mission Trips
Our Medical Mission Trips are a partnership between U.S. and Bolivian
medical personnel (primarily surgical) who serve the poor in their
critical health needs. This mission is a unique opportunity for
U.S. medical personnel to more deeply explore their calling to serve
humanity. On every mission, we provide roughly $60,000 worth of
medical supplies, medicines and equipment, see approximately 400
patients; and perform 40 to 50 surgeries.
Deformities
and diseases that would have been cured at birth or never arisen
in the U.S. are rampant among the Bolivian people. Debilitating
accidents are common and 46 percent of children are undernourished.
For many, our medical help is their only chance for a productive
life or even survival.
For more info, please go to our Mission
Trips page.
Link
to Life - Medicines, Supplies, and Equipment Delivery
Through our Link to Life program we have brought nearly
$5
worth of medicines, medical supplies, and equipment to Bolivian
Hospitals to be used in their work with the poor.
