Guatemala Medical Mission: September 2018

Santa Apolonia, Guatemala: September 5–9, 2018

Guatemala Medical Mission

Mission Trip Summary

Global Health Reach has partnered with local Guatemala NGOs to bring much-needed medical care to remote villages in the Guatemalan Highlands.  This region, Santa Apolonia, Guatemala, has a population of 40,000 with access to only one doctor.  Even when residents are able to make the long commute to the doctor, they are often ill-supplied with equipment and medicine — leaving the patients untreated and empty handed.

Clinic Logistics and Details

GHR volunteers will conduct 3 full-day medical clinics at villages in the beautiful highlands region of Guatemala (specific locations will not be disclosed for security reasons).  Volunteers will be given all supplies (equipment and medicine) necessary to provide medical services.  Logistics (transportation, translators, food, water, etc.) is all handled by GHR so that volunteers can focus on the patients!

Guatemala Medical Mission Cost

To cover the costs of this trip, GHR requires a minimum donation of $975 (does not include air travel to and from Guatemala City).  This donation includes:

  • Medical supplies and medicine for approximately 400 patients
  • Private transportation in Guatemala (including airport pickup/drop-off at designated time)
  • Translators for non-Spanish speakers during clinic
  • 4 nights of lodging in Guatemala
  • 3 meals a day
