Our recent medical brigade in the Dominican Republic delivered 75 specialized surgeries over five intensive days, directly improving patients’ health and quality of life.

Made possible by 13 volunteer medical specialists, the surgeries treated conditions including tonsil and adenoid disorders, eardrum perforations, septal deviations, thyroid problems, and more, transforming the lives of patients who would otherwise not have had access to specialized care.

Since 2012, this initiative, in partnership with Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in North Carolina, has provided nearly 8,000 free medical consultations and helped more than 1,600 patients. With the support from our 85 employee volunteers, the brigade reflects our ongoing commitment to expanding access to specialized healthcare in the communities where we operate.

Through our Community Investment Program in Nicaragua, we recently invested in improvements at the Samuel Calero Child Development Center, directly enhancing the learning experience for early childhood education.

Civil and electrical upgrades optimized key spaces, including two infant areas, three preschool classrooms, and a dormitory, resulting in safer, more functional learning environments.

Through initiatives like this, we’re strengthening education and building stronger communities with greater opportunities for new generations.
