Caborca, Mexico Medical Mission Day 3

Our last of eighteen cataract surgeries today! And our vision screening team served approx 840 kids and adults with free prescription glasses. The smiles and joy we saw and the impact on the lives of our patients is priceless.

Mexico Medical Mission Day 2

We worked hard as a team to complete twenty surgeries today.  We had 587 patients for vision screenings and were happy to provide many children and adults prescription glasses.  Impacting the lives of so many is heartwarming to all of us!!!  Kudos to Caborca Lions Club for being so hospitable and very helpful to all of us.

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!!!

Toronto, Canada

Here are pictures from the Lion's International Convention that was held in Toronto, Canada. I attended with the Phx Phil-Am LionsClub. We were in a celebratory parade and the club came in with 17 attendees. The Lions Club is the world's largest service club with 46,000 clubs, with 1.35 million members in 208 countries! It was founded in 1917 to fight blindness and now has added several projects which continue to impact so many countries and so many lives! I am proud to be a member! At the convention they put together fantastic entertainment for everyone to enjoy and we also got to see Joe Preston become the 97th International President! Congrats Joe! I had a great time!

My New Adventure!

I am very excited to announce I was elected director of Phoenix Phil-Am Lions Club.  

The Phoenix Phil-Am Lions Club is part of an international network who work together to answer the needs that challenge communities around the world.  I was previously elected president and treasurer of an affiliated club the Barangay Lions. The Phil-Am Lions Club is part of one of the world’s largest service club organizations , Lions Clubs International.  I previously participated as a translator during a cataract medical mission in Benjamin Hill, Sonora ,Mexico.

Everywhere the club volunteers go, they make friends, and communities get better.  The club helps wherever help is needed – in their own communities and around the world – with unmatched integrity and energy.  I am also on the planning committee for the February, 2015 medical mission to the Philippines.  This year they performed over 200 cataract surgeries, free of charge, to those in need!  I am proud to be a director of such a wonderful club, and I look forward to the exciting activities we have planned.
