Preserve the People, Preserve the Culture

When a medical emergency happens in Buscalan, help isn't just around the corner.

Whether it's an elder experiencing a medical crisis, a child fighting illness, or a mother facing complications during childbirth, families may face a journey of up to three hours across steep mountain terrain to reach emergency medical care.

Without proper emergency transportation and adequate medical resources, those critical first moments can mean the difference between life and death.

Buscalan is home to one of the world's most celebrated Indigenous cultural traditions.

Yet the same community that has shared its culture with the world continues to face significant barriers to healthcare access.

We believe preserving Indigenous culture begins with protecting the people who keep it alive.
