Story
As of December 2022, MultiCare has committed to furthering its mission to serve on a global scale.
The World Health Organization reports the region of Trujillo has one of the lowest physician to patient ratios – approximately 0.8 doctors to 1000 people.
One-fourth of the city’s population lives in the district of La Esperanza, a geographically isolated area making healthcare access even more limited. La Esperanza has one hospital and five health centers that service a population of over 200,000 (Peruvian Ministry of Health). This Fall, MultiCare is partnering with GO-MED for an outreach event to provide life-saving surgery to citizens in Peru. In addition, MultiCare is preparing for a rural family medicine free clinic scheduled in October 2024 and we are collecting donations to support the medical leaders of La Esperanza.

In January 2024 your donations provided 15 families with emergency food lasting several months, 35 children in these families, and 2 children received their first toys.
