This just in from Dr. Jose Velasquez, Executive Director of Mano a Mano – Bolivia:  “We have dedicated projects in Omereque, Leon Rancho, Uchama Alta and Tupiza on schedule.  Next week we will dedicate roads in Huanuma-Vila Vila and Chilichi Vila Vila, where we previously constructed a school and housing for teachers…I wanted to tell you that during the dedication of classrooms in Tupiza, they asked us to construct a health clinic in one of the barrios of this remote town.  The conditions of the clinic in this barrio are about the worst that I have seen – I nearly cried at seeing the working conditions of the physicians and nurses….we can’t do much at this time [because our funds are committed to other projects] but we present this request to you, hoping that you can help us.”

Please help us build a clinic in Tupiza.  Your gift will be matched with three dollars for every dollar you contribute!
