Description:
2017 should include a medical mission trip to Juanju, Peru, and several visits to the Hogar San Francisco de Asis, in Chaclacayo, Peru. We have planned a fundraiser dinner for the home at St Francis of Assisi CC in Seffner, Florida, on January 13, 2017. If you are in the area, stop by. If you are not in the area but wish to support the work of Dr Tony Lazzara in Chaclacayo, please contact us. There are opportunities for volunteers to help at the Hogar San Francisco de Asis for young adults, from HS Seniors to young retirees. There is no age limit when it comes to helping a child in need, by maybe helping him/her dress, eat, play, wash, or visit a medical clinic. As I said, contact us for information. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
We are still working to find a way to establish a free medical clinic in Lima for sick and destitute children. We hope to staff the clinic with volunteer specialists from the US, Canada, and other countries and persons interested in the healthcare of children who's resources are nil. If you are interested in supporting our work either as a Specialist or with financial resources, please drop an Email
Organizational Base: Brandon, Florida
