Alas de Amor Medical Mission - Day Three

What a great day serving others! 128 patients came to see us.  We performed lots of extractions, filled cavities and did several cleanings.  Twenty children from a local orphanage were soooo cute and loving! This group of dentists hygienists and volunteers are the best!!!!!!

Alas de Amor Medical Mission

I'm volunteering my time with a new organization called Alas de Amor.  We are headed to Mexico to an LDS church where we will be seeing approx 350 patients for extractions, cleanings, and exams.  I'll be assisting where needed and helping with Spanish translation.  What a blessing these 30 volunteers will be making.

Mexico Medical Mission Day 1

On our way to my next medical mission!  Thirty to forty cataract surgeries and vision screening for hundreds of people in need.  We are all very excited to serve others!!!

Mexico

Great long weekend in Bahia Kino, Mexico. I packed 50 pounds of clothes and brought them along with food donations to the poorest there coupled with a meeting with the missionaries Jesse and Jenny in Guaymas/San Carlos. I met 20 children ages 8 and under. A christian based orphanage that was wonderful, and I was thrilled to also donate clothing, money and food to them. Looking forward to going back some time.

Phil-Am Lion's Club of Arizona

On June 21, 2014 the Phoenix Phil-Am Lions Club will hold its annual Induction and Installation Ball at the Hilton Phoenix Airport.  This undertaking is partly a fundraising event to support the club's signature project - Medical Mission.  The upcoming one in 2015 would be the 11th betwen the Philippines and Mexico missions.  Last year we netted over $2000 and the celbration was attneded by family friends, supporters and cignitaries.  We were able to do the following with the funds: 223 cataract operations, 67 pterygiums, dispensed 9000 corrective glasses, identified school children with vision problems and screened over 300 patients for diabetes.

This year we're even committed to making a bigger success and I am hoping you will help.  The aim is to raise about $5000 and the funds will be used for the cataract and medical mission on February 15-20, 2015 in Zambales, Philippines.  The club always breaks its record and this tiime we hope to be able to help 250 blinded patients because of cataract.

In reciprocation to your kind favor, we will put your pictures, greetings and advertisements in the club's souvenir program.  We will be issuing a donation receipt for the entire amount as requested.  Raising funds for such a noble cause cannot be possible without your generous support and sponsorship.
