The HAND-Philippines Medical Mission 2025 Fund Campaign reflects our steadfast commitment to delivering essential healthcare to underserved communities. This initiative plays a crucial role by directly funding patient care costs and logistics necessary to operate five mobile clinics, each aligned with a Rural Health Unit (RHU) in our targeted areas. In addition, we offer vital hospital-based services, including cataract surgeries, cleft palate repairs, elective major surgeries, and urgent patient care.
Our dedicated volunteers actively seek support from their networks, inviting you to join us in this noble endeavor. If you are reading this message, it may have come to you through one of our passionate advocates. It is important to note that our volunteers cover their own travel expenses and the non-direct patient care costs associated with their mission trips. Your generous donations will directly fund surgeries, medications, laboratory tests, and other essential healthcare services. Furthermore, since our directors and officers receive no compensation and we maintain an administrative fee of only 6%—one of the lowest in the industry—you can be confident that your contributions will have a significant impact on those in need.
This fundraiser stems from our grassroots origins, responding to the urgent medical needs of communities affected by natural disasters. As we strive to expand our reach and enhance our impact, we remain devoted to organic growth, ensuring every contribution is directed toward lifesaving medical assistance. Together, we can honor this mission and create a lasting change in the lives of those we serve.
Consider the stories of individuals in these communities: a fisherman who has endured years of hardship and is now losing his sight to cataracts; a young child born with a cleft palate, bravely facing challenges in eating, speaking, and connecting with peers; a mother battling severe anemia due to prolonged uterine bleeding. These narratives are not just abstract; they reflect the heart-wrenching realities for countless individuals in underserved areas of the Philippines.
Many of these individuals' hopes hinge on procedures that are often viewed as routine. Yet, access to healthcare in rural regions is severely limited due to widespread poverty. Many families depend on subsistence farming or fishing, making healthcare a luxury they cannot afford. Tragically, preventable conditions frequently lead to unnecessary suffering and loss of life.
This is why we are launching a crucial medical mission to deliver essential healthcare services to those who need them most. However, we cannot accomplish this mission alone.
Every dollar you donate has the potential to transform a life:
- For just $90, you can restore sight to a farmer or fisherman suffering from cataracts, empowering him to support his family and regain his dignity.
- A contribution of $180 can fund a cleft palate surgery, allowing a child to thrive without the burdens of social stigma and physical challenges.
- With a generous gift of $360, you can provide life-saving surgeries for conditions such as gallstones, hernias, or uterine fibroids, alleviating suffering for parents and their families.
In addition to these critical medical services, we support five struggling Rural Health Units (RHUs), which serve thousands of indigent patients. These RHUs are essential lifelines in their communities, offering vital primary medical care that many would otherwise go without. From managing chronic conditions to providing preventative care and maternal and child health services, they are at the forefront of the fight for health equity.
Join us in this transformative mission. Your contribution, regardless of its size, can profoundly impact the lives of those we serve. From restoring sight and performing childhood surgeries to facilitating life-saving interventions, you have the power to bring about remarkable change.
Let’s turn compassion into action together. Donate today and become part of something truly meaningful! Together, we can rewrite the stories of resilience and hope for those who need it most.
