Many have expressed an interest in coming to Peru to volunteer in Amazon Promise clinics but either can't get away for two weeks, or don't necessarily want to trek through the muddy jungle and fight mosquitos to do it. We understand that! Demand for our medical care services is overwhelming especially right here in the city of Iquitos where we often see people in conditions far worse than those in the jungle. We want to reach as many people as possible and with your help, we can.
Full day medical clinics run throughout the week in the poorest sections of Iquitos in the floating city of Belen, and the port area of Masusa. (see proposed itinerary below). We'll be able to give desperately needed medical care, HIV and dental hygiene education to hundreds of people living in extreme poverty.
Amazon Promise is dedicated to building a healthier global community. Every day we are working to improve peoples' lives. Everyday we are able to use our volunteers' expertise to transform villages and neighborhoods into healthier communities. Please join us.
