My Nonprofit Reviews

I was fortunate to have been on the Vision Trip for the Mayan Health Alliance. We had time to spend with Anne and Peter, the inspiration and directors for this organization. We spent 4 days doing home site visits, meeting the patients and their families, the care providers and hearing the stories, seeing health assessments being given and education provided.

What is unique about this organization is that they have looked at each barrier and created specific ways to overcome them from creating medical words in the indigenous Mayan language to educating local illiterate women to provide advanced health assessments and communicate with advanced technical devices. The international research and quality improvement projects done in this organization are being shared both with other local health organizations and NGOs but also other international organizations spreading the knowledge gained.

The Mayan Health Alliance Vision Trip has replaced my skepticism and anxieties for the health of our world with hope and a belief that answers can and are being found.
