Enduring Solutions. Healthy Families. Sustainable Communities.

As way to both support our work in Ecuador, have fun reading with your children and grandchildren, and open a doorway to Andean culture we offer a children’s book written by PACH’s very own founder and president, Paul Martel. Now available for purchase. The story, narrated by a loveable guinea pig named Max, introduces Andean South American culture through the symbols carved on an ancient Incan sculpture.

Partners for Andean Community Health (PACH) is the fiscal sponsor for the Ecuadorian non-profit clinic Fundacion Internacional Buen Samaritano Paul Martel (FIBUSPAM). PACH takes a unique approach to global health and development. Using the non-profit clinic model, we aim to establish sustainable continuums of care that empower local providers to address the most pressing healthcare needs in their home communities.

Read About the Impacts on Our Patients’ Lives
All of Manuela’s children were born at home and she has never seen a gynecologist or an obstetrician. Overall, access to healthcare is very limited for her and her family. When Manuela learned that FIBUSPAM was visiting her village and providing free general medicine consultations and gynecological exams she was very excited.
Byron Garcia, a young Ecuadorian professional, suffers from diabetes. In Ecuador this disease is not always easy to treat. The specialists and pharmaceuticals that we have here in the United States simply don’t exist in Ecuador.
