one+one=health care

From the poorest squatter homes of San Pedro Sula, Honduras to the slums of San Salvador, El Salvador, teams of medical and dental professionals and support staff have partnered with Feed The Children Central American staff to bring primary health services to children and families desperate for care.

Our goal through this ongoing program is to develop long-term relationships with health care professionals in Central America. Through the mentoring of local medical and dental professionals, we create an immediate impact through team-based medical and dental clinics. A sustained impact is created through the education that is delivered. This will provide for ongoing medical and dental treatment in local communities. For those who attend the clinics, they experience improved self-care and a healthier existence.
