Impact on Partners

Our true impact goes far beyond the number of patients we serve directly. Each Solidarity Bridge program focuses on empowering Bolivian and Paraguayan professionals and institutions. Our impact is multiplied through the innumerable additional patients who benefit from the upgraded skills of our partner physicians and the equipment and supplies donated to our partner hospitals. Solidarity Bridge chooses each of our partners based not only on their skill sets and capacities, but also on their shared drive to use those resources and gifts in solidarity with the poor. We, in turn, are transformed by their selfless commitment and vocation.

We are proud to share the stories of these partner surgeons from each of our programs. Select any partner name to read more. 

 

Impact on Patients

We have been touched by the beauty and strength of the people we serve. They have demonstrated the true meaning of compassion, respect, and faith, and in them, we have seen the power of humility and human dignity. While we go to Bolivia and Paraguay to heal and empower those in need, we have found that we are healed and empowered in return.
