Description of Project
The Clínica de Beneficencia ‘Amistad Británico-Mexicana,’ is a charity hospital built by our partner in Mexico City, Amistad-Británico-Mexicana. Treating 8,000+ patients a year, who would otherwise have no medical access, the hospital’s mission is to offer the best available treatment in modern surroundings. Built for victims of the 1985 earthquake, this hospital is currently undergoing an essential first modernization. Your donations will help complete the final phase of this monumental effort by supplying vital diagnostic and surgical equipment for treatment and providing refurbishment of rooms and common areas for a clean, safe and hygienic environment. The total cost for this final stage is estimated at USD$160,000.
