Goodbye 2023
In December, we concluded the year by providing medical assistance to individuals who still required aid in the area affected by Hurricane Otis.
We manage to attend in Guerrero 575 medical consultations, 812 dental interventions and 4 Ultrasounds and electrocardiograms. As always, our Free Medical Care Days were attending Campeche, Chiapas, Guanajuato, Hidalgo, Puebla, Tabasco, Tamaulipas, and Veracruz.

It is important to remember that prevention and early detection are essential to prevent cancer. Adopting a healthy lifestyle, avoiding tobacco, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and undergoing regular medical exams can help reduce the risk of developing cancer or detect it in its early stages, when it is most treatable.
Our Impact
“I want to thank you for the free medical care you gave us and the pharmacy was a great help. Thank you for taking care of us!”

March
World Oral Health Day is celebrated in March every year. This date aims to raise awareness among the population about the importance of maintaining good oral health and promoting healthy oral hygiene practices.
Oral health is critical to overall well-being, as issues such as cavities, gum disease, and other conditions can have a significant impact on overall health, including cardiovascular health.
Maintaining good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, regular dental visits, and a balanced diet, can help prevent dental disease and promote a healthy smile.
Our Impact
"Thank you for the consultation and the medicine I received, for your
generosity and care. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
