Medical Supplies
to do our jobs

Volunteer!

​
We have been fortunate to work with many new volunteers over the years. We extend our gratitude to those who donated their time and expertise and we wish them the best.

Thank You

 
Being able to help those less fortunate occurs not only because of the dedication of the volunteers, but also because of the support of many others. 
​
These include Parkview Medical Center and many individuals who work on collecting donated supplies, work with other NGOs for donations and plan our medical missions.
