SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES – Supporting our trip or helping to provide medications or vision supplies for one trip is a great way to help!
 
GIFT OF MEDICATION - The Hands of Healing team takes and distributes medications to the indigenous people in rural areas of Guatemala.  Over 80% of the indigenous people have NO Access to medical care. The most frequent causes of illness and death in Guatemala are due to treatable and or communicable diseases such as pneumonia, diarrhea, malnutrition and tuberculosis.  500 plus patients are treated in one week.  $5000 is spent yearly on medications

GIFT OF SIGHT - The HOH  team does eye exams, treatments for eye conditions and provides glasses to the indigenous people in rural areas of Guatemala.  Indigenous people have NO ACCESS to vision care and services.  Prescription glasses are made on location.  Reader or sunglasses are provided.  $3500 is spent yearly on these services
