YOUR DONATIONS

Part of the team's preparation for the trip to Guatemala involves securing donations of essential medical supplies for surgery. The generosity of these donors assures the team's success. We encourage donors who wish to visit the hospital to join one of our surgical teams. The teams depart in February, May, August, and November each year. The surgeons will be operating for about 10 days, but usually 2 or 3 days will be sufficient for you to appreciate the high caliber of work performed. We have accomodations at the hospital for 4-8 guests, and meals are provided. Contact us to make tax-deductible bequests, gifts of cash or securities.
