Upcoming Visit to Honduras

During 2008, Casa Corazón partnered with World Surgical Foundation, Harrisburg, PA and Ayuda Foundation, SPS, Honduras to complete a Water Project in Hospital Mario Catarino Rivas, San Pedro Sula, Honduras. The funding was graciously granted by Kind World Foundation specifically to provide clean water for children. The project included new bathrooms, renovated bathrooms, filtrated water fountains, and sink reparations. In December I will travel to Honduras to help report on the completed project. Stay tuned for that report.
In addition, I will meet with the owner, administrater of a private hospital and a pediatric cardiologist to organize surgical intervention for minor cardiac deficiencies in impoverished pediatric patients. Donations will be accepted to cover hospital costs, while providing this charitable opportunity to those who would otherwise be unable to pay for this life saving treatment. Stay tuned for more information regarding this exciting project.

Happy Thanksgiving From Casa!

As the holidays approach, many search for projects for their class rooms, social groups, church groups, and families, etc to share the spirit of giving. Casa Corazon is currently accepting donations of tylenol, ibuprofen, and vitamins. Generic brands welcome. Both adult and children doses are needed. These medications will be distributed on our spring 2009 medical brigade which serves 400 underprivileged persons in the remote mountainous villages of Honduras, Central America. Should you wish to be involved in this project, please contact Cathy Stauffer at casacorazon@embaqmail.com. Watch for more upcoming Casa opportunities and activities on this blog site and Casa Corazon's new home page.
