Our own Dr. Roberta Pauls is a regular volunteer for Health for Humanity and travels each November to Guatemala to provide health care. She is encouraging everyone to participate in the clothing drive outlined below and will be collecting used clothing at Bayswater Family Practice on December 1 and 2 if you would like to make a donation.
Dear Health for Humanity Supporters!
We are organizing a collection of new or gently used clothing, shoes, linens, bedding and towels to raise funds for Health for Humanity (H4H) surgical and primary care outreach program in Guatemala. H4H is a 100% volunteer-run organization that seeks to support health services, education and public health projects to those in need in the world’s developing regions.
