As Mahatma Gandhi said, each of us must be the change we wish to see in the world. Each of us can make a difference in the life of one person… one family… or an entire community.

Want to join us in making a difference? We are raising money to benefit Refuge International Inc, and any donation will help make an impact. 

We are embarking on our very first medical mission trip this February in San Raymundo, Guatemala.

Donations are used for the Refuge International Change the World program.  Your participation in Refuge’s Change the World program helps pay for a substantial portion of the annual costs associated with the organization's work.

The Change the World Program does not pay for volunteers' trip fees, and the medical mission trip fees paid by volunteers do not cover all of the costs of food, lodging, in-country transfers, insurance, supplies, and equipment needed to make a trip successful.

We are asking you to help raise the funds to cover all of the expenses associated with the mission team's work. Funds raised may also help fund the entire portfolio of projects and initiatives that are part of Refuge International's mission.

Here are just some of the ways these donations are used:
Support a full-time hospital in Sarstun, Guatemala
Water drilling projects
Medication, surgical supplies and equipment shipment costs
Cervical cancer screening
Transportation for patients traveling for surgical and medical care
Laboratory and radiology testing
Construction and repair of our current clinical sites, as well as future sites
Preventative dental program for children
Operational costs
Country-wide deworming program
Transportation and care of patients traveling to the US for surgical care through our Saul Project

Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.
