Kaiser Napa-Solano FMRP 2023 ENLACE Fundraiser

As the pandemic comes to an end, the Napa-Solano Family residency program is once again pursuing a partnership with ENLACE Honduras Foundation to provide primary care and community projects to a population in rural Honduras. Please help us support the Global Health needs of the families in Taulabe, Honduras! 100% of Donations will be used to fund important items such as: - $5: school supplies or dental supplies for kids - $10: medications for one patient - $20: one indestructible soccer ball for the village - $90: one fuel-efficient stove. ENLACE Honduras Foundation is a non-profit medical relief organization, founded by Javier F. Sevilla-Mártir, MD, that provides additional primary care clinical services to the rural population of Taulabé, Honduras. Taulabé is located in the central Comayagua region, a two-hour drive from the capital of Tegucigalpa. The clinic serves 60,000 people from 58 communities within a 5-mile radius of the clinic. In addition to primary care services with an adult and pediatric focus, part-time services are provided once a week by a dentist, psychologist, and gynecologist. The facility is a newly-completed two-story building that includes 4 examination rooms, a pharmacy, and potential space for a birthing center and operating room. The goal of the partnership between the Kaiser Permanente Napa-Solano Family Medicine Residency Program and ENLACE is to support ENLACE’s mission and promote a sustainable Global Health initiative in Honduras. Our vision is to continue annual trips with a Primary Care and multi-disciplinary team to help conduct needs assessments, offer direct patient care, develop health education and youth outreach, promote healthy activities with soccer and sports clinics, and support community development with organic gardening and fuel-efficient stove installations in individual homes. We will also be developing language skills to bring home through medical Spanish classes offered for the KP practitioners. We are not only ecstatic to re-engage with ENLACE’s efforts but to enhance our understanding of global health efforts via community building and engagement in public health efforts. We hope that you decide to support our efforts in any way as we prepare to embark on this journey once again with ENLACE!
