Mission

Partner for Surgery was founded in 2001 to serve as a bridge between patients in need of major health and surgical care in remote communities and the international volunteer triage and surgical teams that come to Guatemala to help the impoverished; and to educate and empower rural Guatemalans to initiate and advocate for vital health care services on their own behalf.
