Our initiative: Key Club is an international student led organization that teaches the youth to both serve and support all different types of communities. It is with great honor that our community here at Colonie has the opportunity to work with the Osborne Head and Neck Foundation and fundraise to help families in need of medical care.
All donations made will go towards their upcoming medical mission to Guatemala in February- March of 2022. Any donations made will make a vast impact and save lives in Guatemala. As always, thank you for your support!
We’ve committed to raising $5,000 towards this Medical Mission in Guatemala. With your support we can change lives.
The Osborne Head and Neck Foundation’s Medical and Impact Missions are 100% funded by donations from supporters like you. They commit to communities with little to no access to medical care in developing countries, and bring all the supplies needed to perform a wide array of medical services.
Your donation is…
- Providing clinical and surgical services, at no cost, to those living in extreme poverty in Guatemala
- Arranging and paying for transportation for patients living in remote villages
- Providing local language experts to eliminate language as a barrier to care
- Securing lodging for patients in the city during treatment and post op care
- Sponsoring children to be fed, sheltered, clothed, and protected at the Hogar Shalom Orphanage
- Adding up to 50 computers for children in remote villages to learn employable skills that can lift them out of poverty
- Refreshing a school and orphanage living quarters, inside and out, with new paint and onsite community works
- Increasing access to education skills training
