I have something exciting to share! This January I will be participating in a medical relief and education mission with members of Team Broken Earth in Guatemala.
My sister Amy volunteered last year and I was so inspired by the stories she shared. This organization provides access to patients in extremely remote areas and offers surgical services and diagnostics that can significantly impact their lives. One surgery will not only impact a patient's quality of life, it can mean the difference of being able to provide for their family and support their community.
Background:
Team Broken Earth first went to Guatemala in 2016 to assess medical needs in order to better inform future missions. Since then, they have partnered with the Asociacion Compañero para Cirugia (ACPC) whose mission is to connect patients in need of health and surgical care in remote communities with international volunteer triage and surgical teams, as well as to educate and empower rural Guatemalans to initiate and advocate for vital health care services on their own behalf.
I have created this fundraising page to collect donations in support of this effort. To help me reach my fundraising goals, j ust click "Sponsor Me" to make a donation. Any contribution makes a difference!
Team Broken Earth provides medical care and education in disaster stricken and developing nations. Our missions focus on providing much needed care to those most in need, and supporting and reinforcing the healthcare system in some of the poorest countries in the world.
