GUATEMALA MEDICAL MISSION!!! Its that time again for all those interested in going to Boca Costa Medical Mission, Guatemala... I had 4 people drop out of the team..I need at least 2 medical & 2 non medical.. Please consider joining us! :-) Hi I am VERY happy to say that we almost have a full team!! Only 4 slots left. If you are interested, you need to contact me!! Thanks to all who are going! It will be an awesome experience! Many of the residents of the Boca Costa de Solola are impoverished, indigenous Maya. The forefathers of these indigenous were transplanted from the Highlands of Guatemala to work as poorly payed laborers cutting sugar cane and coffee in this very tropical climate. Over 10,000 clients pass through their clinic doors each year. The BCMM has built local trust. These patients, who were once afraid of health centers and hospitals because of discrimination, poverty, language and cultural barriers come to see our well trained and compassionate local staff. Volunteer medical and surgical teams come several times a year from the international community leaving with a sense of more than they ever expected due to their ability to meet this unique culture to exchange their skills.
