Donate to Hands to Belize: Transform Lives

Hands to Belize is a collaborative effort between the physical, occupational, and speech-language therapy departments of Alvernia University, the University of Pittsburgh, Misericordia University, and Bellarmine University. Hands to Belize's mission is to provide education through sustainable rehabilitation based on the needs of several community partners in Belize that serve children, adults, and older adults with physical, cognitive, or developmental disabilities. We aim to provide community-based global learning to our international community partners and US-based educational institutions, fostering a global learning community. University students learn valuable clinical and interpersonal skills while helping to meet our community partners' needs through hands-on service learning. Our next trip is scheduled for January 2025.

Donated funds will go directly to providing resources, transportation, food, and materials to the recipients of our services in Belize, such as providing transportation/meal costs for families to travel to treatment clinics for their children to receive therapy services. We greatly appreciate your help in making a lasting difference in the lives of individuals and communities we serve in Belize!
