A Small Contribution can Go a Long Way!
Every donation to the Hispaniola Medical Charity for this year’s medical mission trip helps us care for another patient. The people of the Dominican Republic lack many of the basic medical services we take for granted here, so we get visits from many patients who have gone years suffering from advanced vein diseases.
Without enough donations, we will have to turn many of these patients away. Please help us treat as many patients who walk through our door.
