Award Winning Author, Entrepreneur and Adventurer Visits Mumbai, India For Medical Mission
Charles G. Irion Performs Medical Assessment For Project C.U.R.E. In Mumbai, India
As an advisory board member and a trained and certified needs assessment representative, Charles G. Irion’s latest mission was in Mumbai, India. The city of Mumbai, is a great port city, situated on the west coast of the Indian peninsula.  One of India’s dominant urban centers, it’s one of the largest and most densely populated cities in the world.  Therefore, the medical needs are great.   Major health problems in the city include AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, chronic respiratory ailments, and gastro-intestinal diseases related to poor sanitation and hygiene. 
Working closely with Harvest India, Irion assessed two hospitals.  One located in Mumbai and another in Tenali.  The Phil-Am Lions Club donated over 250 pair of neutralized eye glasses for children in an orphanage, and Irion himself brought over fifty pounds of clothing for children in need.  
Quote by CI here – something like – “I’m honored to volunteer for PC and look forward to the ways I can help the people of Mumbai.”
About Project C.U.R.E. - Project C.U.R.E. is the largest provider of donated medical supplies and equipment to developing countries around the world. Project C.U.R.E. is the recipient of the GuideStar Exchange Silver Seal, the Charity Navigator Four-Star Rating and ranked by Forbes as one of the 20 Most Efficient Large U.S. Charities.  For more information on how you can help, please visit www.projectcure.org
 
About Havest India - Our strategy is to be intentional whether distributing food, or caring for an orphan for 1 day or for their entire life, or running an academic calendar in a major institution, or doing a major outreach in an unreached village. Not only are we looking to meet the “right now” needs, but we are looking to invite each person we encounter to be a part of a community so that they can experience true life change. We want them to know that they matter and that they are loved. It tangibly looks like having young pastors trained in our Bible Colleges, so that after a Mercy Camp there is a pastor visiting or living in that area, ready to follow up with those we treat. We not only want to care for the physical needs but the emotional and spiritual as well.  For more information please visit, www.harvestindia.org
