Imagine a region where life under the extreme poverty line is the norm, where the nearest medical center is over a hundred miles away, where potable water doesn't exist, 34% of children suffer from chronic malnutrition, 65% of children have anemia and sun exposure is constant.
Through ongoing outreach, we provide people living in the Andean region of Peru with a better quality of life.
Using teams of doctors, nurses, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and related professionals, we service immediate healthcare needs. We are also creating a platform for long-term health and productivity by educating the community about nutrition and healthcare and building sorely needed infrastructure.
