Adam Frank hasn't added a story.
After some careful thought and planning, and with the blessing of my family, I have decided to participate in another extraordinary volunteer activity...but I need your help!
On August 13th, 2016, I’ll be heading to the city of Las Salinas, Nicaragua.
The mission: build a much needed observation room at the local health clinic that will help address the health needs of over 5000 residents in the region. In the past 10 years, there has been a spike in hypertension and diabetes cases in the Las Salinas area of Nicaragua. These patients are treated at the health clinic and often have to stay for hours or even days in a row. There is not a separate observation room, so patients are 'observed' in the waiting room. It is estimated that approximately 500 people with chronic illnesses will benefit from this project in addition to a number of non-chronic cases. Adding just one room may seem like a small change, but separating the waiting area from the observation room will vastly improve the healthcare experience for the Salinas residents.
This project is part of salesforce.com's 1-1-1 integrated philanthropy model and is fully backed and vetted by our foundation.
I’m asking for donations of $25-$100, but anything you can pledge will make a difference. To make a donation and see my progress towards my fundraising goal of $3,500.
Your donations will go to purchase the needed supplies for this project.
