Will you make a gift to help us reach more patients? Because of your generosity, PACH can continue to provide medical care to over 20,000 individuals from rural and indigenous communities each year as well as scale our educational programming. By supporting PACH, you are not only providing care to thousands of Ecuadorians living in the Chimborazo Province but also empowering local medical professionals and building the capacity of our local partners. partnersforandeancommunityhealth.org/donate/

Across Andean Ecuador too many families face the heartbreaking reality of having nowhere to turn when they need medical care. Specialized doctors are scarce, screenings are out of reach, and basic surgeries can cost more than a family earns in a year. For many, preventable illnesses become lifelong disabilities or worse. Thanks to supporters like you, Partners for Andean Community Health (PACH) is changing that story. Last year you helped us bring free cervical cancer screenings and treatment to hundreds of women in underserved communities—many receiving care for the very first time. You helped us detect disease, provide treatments and referrals, and begin working with local partners to expand education.

You helped restore sight and hope for hundred of patients who lived for years with conditions. Our visiting ophthalmic team provided specialized vision care and surgeries rarely available in rural Ecuador, giving children and adults the chance to see, learn, work, and participate fully in their communities.

Every day families arrive at FIBUSPAM seeking relief from pain, illness, and injury. Because of you, PACH continues to offer high-quality, affordable surgery ensuring that no one is denied care because of cost or geography. As we look to 2026, we ask for your support to continue providing women’s health care, vision care, and essential surgeries for those who would otherwise go without. Your donation today ensures that families in Ecuador receive dignity, compassion, and medical care.

Recién realizamos un programa de pasantías para 6 estudiantes de varias universidades en EEUU. Queremos agradecer profundamente a nuestros compañeros de Fundación Internacional Buen Samaritano Paúl Martel "FIBUSPAM" y Hospital Fibuspam Ecuador por su valiosa colaboración. Varias personas del hospital y de las comunidades de Ecuador compartieron sus vidas con nuestros pasantes, creando una experiencia inolvidable. Cada muestra de gentileza crea un nuevo enlace fuerte entre nuestras organizaciones y familias.
