CHOOSE HEALTH, ALLEVIATE POVERTY
#HealthForLife
The month of September, I’m challenging myself for change to help alleviate poverty for women in rural Guatemala.
For the 30,000 women Friendship Bridge serves each year, access to preventive healthcare is rarely an option. This lack of healthcare only perpetuates the cycle of poverty.
Through the Health for Life program, Friendship Bridge is providing women’s preventive health services to further their mission to alleviate poverty.
To help Friendship Bridge expand this important work, I’m doing two things this month:
1. I’m prioritizing my own health. For me that means scheduling medical appointments I’ve been putting off and exercising three times a week.
2. I’m helping Friendship Bridge raise funds to expand Health for Life.
Would you support me in these efforts? Consider donating to my campaign or even start your own! My goal is to raise $1,000 by Sept 30. In Health for Life, $1,000 would translate into health services for 40 women for an entire year in Guatemala.
A little goes a long way when we’re talking about developing countries. Check out what your donation could do in Guatemala:
$25 - Two Pap smears
$50 – Two birth control implants
$75 – Preventive health services for one woman for a year
$100 – Blood pressure cuff
$600 – A laptop for a nurse traveling to rural areas with a mobile clinic
$1,000 – A portion of health equipment, such as a diabetes testing machine
Friendship Bridge is creating opportunities that empower Guatemalan women to build a better life.
