The executive director of the Clinica de Experanza and myself spent a week looking at clinics in remote island areas of Honduras. Many of the clinics did not have funding and worked as best they could with what they had. Some of the clinics were able to find donors to keep the places running with volunteers. There is a hospital being built and we plan on providing equipment for the hosptal. They are literally in the middle of the ocean and by the time the ill person is transported they do not survive.
Supporters like yourself are helping our little clinic reach out and help others in need that are also committed to giving humanitarian aid to the poor. We need to be more aware of people less fortunate than even ourselves. This man in the picture is on a island north of Honduras that has a clinic but was unable to sit in a chair. He laid there quite a while before he got in a bed and died with a American holding his hand. It was a simple illness that they would of treated in the US and sent you home, fine and well.
We would also like your input on Malaria. It has been on this planet forever. There are still leper colonies all over the world. It is a totally curable disease. Yet children and adults alike are loosing limbs. Would you as donors be willing to get involved with curing leprosy? We have alot of tuberculosis where I work, also treatable but medication expensive.
Think about what you want to do with your money and I will give it my best to make it happen.
Have a good week,
gayle
