Our Current Project

Benefitting the HPME Pediatric Medical Center in Encarnacion, Paraguay.

We first visited this hospital in early 2022 to discuss their current medical needs. This non-profit, community hospital offers 24/7 pediatric care that specializes in imaging services, such as diagnostic radiology, neurology, and ultrasound exams.

All medical services are free of charge for local residents as the medical center is funded by the Encarnacion government and it also offers free nutritional classes to the community.

Our goal is to send down a freight container loaded with medical supplies and diagnostic imaging equipment to help these children get the care they need.

The Hospital Director is Dr. Hector Wagner.
