Imagine Not Having Access to A Doctor or Hospital

By Diana | Project Coordinator Dear Friends of Peru,It seems

Dear Friends of Peru,

It seems that every country around the world struggles when it comes to healthcare. So I guess it is important to ask why Peru needs the support over others? 

Well did you know.... 

  • It is estimated upto 20% of the population have zero access to healthcare in Peru
  • Peru has a shortage of medical professionals as once trained they go overseas for high salaries 
  • The government allocation of $332 per capita annually for those community members living in extreme poverty and cannot afford healthcare. 

These are huge challenges we face in Peru and while there are a few projects across Peru working hard tackling this issue in different ways we see many rural smaller communities being left behind and this has been our focus to help bring medical teams into these communities to run outreach projects to help people stay healthy while other projects tackle the issue to increase the medical support across Peru.

Running family planning, Hygiene workshops in communities really helps people take ownership of their own health and as this project grows we hope to start offering mobile doctor surgeries to these communities. 

Thanks,
