Introduction: We are a Catholic organization that recruits groups of doctors, nurses and volunteers to plan yearly medical mission trips to Lima, Peru. We gather volunteers from the USA (centers in Miami and Denver), Peru (center in Lima) and other countries (center in Toronto, Canada), and welcome people from different faiths.

 

Goals: Our primary goal is to provide basic medical care to the poor people of Pamplona Alta, living around Lima, the capital of Peru. These people do not usually have access to health care and most of them are women and children. In Lima we work with local volunteers and doctors from the Peruvian organization “Solidaridad en Marcha” a branch from the Christian Life Movement (CLM), with whom we coordinate and organize these missions.

 

Next Trip: We are now planning our 7th Medical Mission Trip to Peru. Last year, our mission helped thousands of people by providing medical care to the Pamplona Alta community and their families. I know many of you have experienced previous medical mission trips and we hope you will be inspired to help us build the next mission that will take place in February 15th to 20th, 2012.

 

We have had such an overwhelming interest in our medical missions to Peru that sometimes we have to place some late coming volunteers on a waiting list. All who have attended the Peru Medical Missions in the past will be given priority as well as anyone that has specific technical and/or logistical skills helpful to the execution of our mission. We are always in need of Doctors (Internal Medicine, Family Practice, OB/GYN, Pediatrics, Dermatology, Ophthalmology, Podiatry, Surgery, Dental, etc.) ARNP’s, PA’s, Pharmacists, Paramedics and Nurses. However, everyone is welcome, even if you do not have any medical background. Just register as soon as possible.

 

Meetings: In an effort to ensure the smoothest possible execution of all the mission tasks, we will be holding 3 meetings before February 2012 in Miami, Denver and Toronto before departure.

 

Air Travel: We will be flying on LAN Peru from Miami to Lima (flights will be coordinated for those flying from other cities). Our goal is to have as many out-of-town (non-Miami) mission members as possible to fly out of Miami with us.

 

The main group will be departing Miami on February 15th at approximately 6 p.m. and will be returning from Lima on February 20th at approximately 7 p.m. Right now the Miami-Lima-Miami fare is $790 (group price).

 

We are requiring that everyone participating in this mission must fly in and out Miami on the same flights. We realize that some volunteers may want to use frequent flyer miles to pay for their tickets using other airlines or may have other travel plans pre or post the mission dates. In these cases, we will NOT be able to make any special arrangements for transportation, lodging or luggage storage for anyone who travels outside the group itinerary. You will be responsible for your own transportation and lodging for dates and times outside the group itinerary.

 

About Peru: Peru is a relatively safe country; however, we cannot completely guarantee for your safety; especially if someone does things outside the itinerary or leaves the group. For these same reasons we do not allow minors unless they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. We will provide security for the group at all times. However, you will be responsible for your own safety if you choose to arrive earlier or stay beyond the set mission dates.

 

Housing & Meals: We will be staying at a retreat house in Lima. The cost per person will be $550 for the 5 days of the mission, which includes local transportation, lodging, meals, 2 T-shirts (required to identify you during the whole trip) and a $150 fee to buy medications and supplies for the mission. Restaurant meals are not covered (you will have to pay for one prorated group lunch and one group dinner during a city tour on the last day).

 

Donations: We will be asking everyone to help collect all donations early this year because we will be sending the vast majority of the non-monetary donations via overseas container the first week of January 2012. Therefore, all donations need to be packed and inventoried by year end 2011.

 

We accept donations to purchase medications to take with us. In previous years we were blessed with thousands of pounds of medicines we received from direct donations or we bought thanks to cash donations. All donations in the US are tax deductible (CLM Inc is a 501c3 institution). You could also sponsor your trip with specific donations.
