A student-run organization providing free health services and education to Rancho Escondido and Colonia Margarita Moran

关于我们

In 2012, UCLA Flying Samaritans began making service trips to Tijuana, Mexico. Students and health professionals travelled to the community of Colonia Margarita Moran, which in the previous rainy season, had been ravaged by flooding. After seven years of learning, growth and consistent service, UCLA Flying Samaritans began the work of expanding their efforts and establishing a larger more permanent clinic. With the support and outstanding effort of many of our members and donors, UCLA Flying Samaritans opened a four-portable clinic in August of 2018. Complete with a main clinic unit, pharmacy, dental care unit and health education classroom. Ever since our initial involvement, Flying Samaritans at UCLA has committed to see lasting changes in these communities. We are dedicated to long term involvement to promote public health and preventative medicine, empower the people of Colonia Margarita Moran and Rancho Escondido to take charge of their medical health, increase access to healthcare, and—one that we find vastly important—build a lasting relationship with Colonia Margarita Moran and Rancho Escondido.

    Dear Friends and Supporters, Each month, our dedicated volunteers come together to provide free clinics to the underserved communities of Colonia Margarita Moran and Rancho Escondido located in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, offering vital medical care and support. Our Mission: Our Flying Samaritans chapter at UCLA serves the rural communities of Rancho Escondido and Colonia Margarita Moran. Our program takes a unique approach to healthcare by promoting public health awareness and preventive medicine. We work to enable the people of these communities to take their health into their own hands and make healthy lifestyle choices for themselves and their families by giving them the tools, knowledge, and skills to do so. By making regular monthly trips to Rancho Escondido and Colonia Margarita Moran, we hope to vastly increase the community’s access to medical care and establish a solid relationship with the residents, encouraging them to make regular monthly checkups a part of a healthy lifestyle. Why We Need Your Support: Many of the patients who attend our clinics struggle to afford their medications, often leaving them without the prescriptions they desperately need. With your generous donations, we can provide these medications at no cost, helping to alleviate their pain and improve their quality of life. Every dollar raised will go directly towards purchasing medications for our patients, allowing us to expand our reach and help even more individuals in need. Together, we can ensure that no one has to choose between their health and their finances. Thank you for your support and for believing in our mission! https://lnkd.in/gquSnsa4 With gratitude, The Flying Samaritans at UCLA Team
