At the end of 2021, our friends at Hospital Obras del Santo Hermano Pedro in Guatemala put out a call for donations to renovate their Operating Room facilities. Their OR welcomes dozens of medical brigades year-round from all over the world, including many Operation Walk teams. The renovation of their OR facilities would ensure that free-of-cost and life-changing surgeries can continue at their hospital for many more years to come.
We are grateful to have been able to contribute to this effort, by donating $10,000.00 toward the purchase of a brand new autoclave for their central sterile processing. This is a key piece of equipment in all of our missions, and we are happy about the long-term impact this renovation will have for the hospital and the people in Antigua and surrounding communities.
We cannot wait for our trip there in August of 2022, and are more than excited to see the new Operating Rooms!
