We Have the Power to Impact Our Future

PACH’s mission is to foster sustainable healthcare systems and communities in Andean Ecuador by providing education, resources, and enduring solutions through supporting its Ecuadorian non-profit clinic, Fundacion Internacional Buen Samaritano Paul Martel (FIBUSPAM). Participants will work alongside FIBUSPAM staff in mobile medical clinics for underserved indigenous communities in the Chimborazo Province. They play a vital role in the medical caravans, gaining a unique cross-cultural experience. Roles can include prescribing and distributing reading glasses, providing dental education to children, and supporting community projects. No medical experience or Spanish language ability is needed to volunteer!
