On June 25th, 2024 Mano a Mano hosted a distribution event for 25 health centers (2 3rd-level hospitals, 1 2nd-level hospital, and 22 1st-level clinics) from throughout Bolivia at our Cochabamba space to receive medical supplies and equipment. All of these supplies are shipped from Minnesota, where they were destined for US landfills; instead they get put to good use for Bolivian people and organizations that can put these supplies to good use.
