Hello,

On behalf of the UTSA Global Brigades Student chapter we want to thank all the generous friends and supporters of our project! We leave to Namanji, Nicaragua in less than 20 days and we are becoming more excited as we continue to prepare for the trip.

Our brigade will provide medications that would cost the community over $7,550, all of which will be prescribed by licensed physicians free of charge. Local children will be invited to an educational workshop which includes a fluoride treatment and we will give them their own dental care kit to take home.

Without your support and generosity, we would not be able to provide these much needed services to the community members of Namanji. We ask that you continue to support our mission by spreading the word about this project and sharing our link: http://proj.at/1JDeY3P with friends, family members, and colleagues to help us meet our goal!

Sincerely,
Priscila Cortez
Secretary
UTSA Global Health Brigades
