My Nonprofit Reviews

Wuqu' Kawoq | Maya Health Alliance is truly unique in the NGO field. The focus on patient rights and patient dignity, especially with respect to culture, is second-to-none. I have never seen a team so dedicated to working within local indigenous languages and bringing healthcare to those that truly need it most.
In my time as a volunteer, I have gotten to see how hardworking all the staff at WK is. The on-the-ground team comes to work with passion and enthusiasm every day, traveling to remote communities--and often walking hours in the mountains--to bring health care directly to our patients. What is truly amazing is the accompaniment that WK emphasizes. We stay with our patients from beginning to end, helping them navigate confusing hospitals and long trips to receive care, always having an open phone line for communication, and taking those extra minutes to understand a patient's life.
Working with Wuqu' Kawoq | Maya Health Alliance is an incredible opportunity to see global health work at its best!
