Countdown to the Philipphines

SHARE

The countdown for our mission to General Santos City has begun, and what better way to start preparations than to host a “Counting Day”?

Volunteers came together in January, taking time out of their weekend to help with inventory at our warehouse. Our team took stock of supplies for the OR, Anesthesia, Patient Floor, and Physical Therapy. They took time to count all existing items and began making a list of supplies that will be needed for our return to the Philippines. Surgical trays were sorted, office supplies gathered, and DME was counted and prepared for travel.

Team leaders also assisted our volunteers with the necessary paperwork to travel, started packing our first boxes, and brought in several new donations. It’s all hands on deck right now to ensure our team is ready to restore mobility this summer.

Many thanks to Donya Amundson, RN; Rocio Duenas; Lisa Fujimoto-Yamaguchi, PA; Mary Ann Guarin, RN; Stacy Kelso; Trish Lindsey, RN; Dr. William Long; Rod Mabasa, PA; Dr. Lee Perez; Don Shimabukuro, Zen Shimabukuro; Dr. Gregory Song; Hasana Sos, RN; Mike Sos; Ana Vasquez; and Cami Ward.
