COVID Relief for Iquitos, Peru

Donation protected
The second wave of COVID-19 is hitting Peru and it's devastating the Amazon jungle community of Iquitos. The two hospitals have collapsed, there are no ICU beds available, and oxygen is scarce. The Peruvian American Medical Society has a Medical Mission team that is treating COVID patients at home.

The biggest barrier is the lack of oxygen for patients. Our goal is to purchase 5 portable oxygen concentrators that convert air to oxygen, making it possible for COVID patients to be treated at home. Right now, there are only two portable concentrators in Iquitos, a city of 800,000 . Your help is needed right now!




Supports the PAMS Jorge Arevalo Mission, Brigada de Rescate y Esperanza (BRE).
