The Healing Fund
Healing, Help and Hope for those in need
Our Story
Since 2005, individuals from all over the Americas have teamed with us to reach out to the Ngobe, an indigenous people group of Panama, a group most often overlooked by governmental service organizations.
In the interior of Panama, one of the leading causes of illness and death of children is gastrointestinal infection often traced to polluted drinking water and unsanitary practices. When friends of ours moved to Panama and encountered some of these severely sick children, they sowed the seeds of our outreach in Panama. Since then, the annual trips have grown in services and scope.
Our yearly trips we drill wells, install water systems, provide medical and dental clinics, distribute clothing, show health videos and entertain the kids with face painting, balloon animals and pictures.
Our team volunteers come from all backgrounds. They may be business owners or professionals wishing to serve the less fortunate. They may be students needing to get valuable hands-on experience, or they may be retirees wanting to share God’s love in a practical way. Whatever their reason for volunteering, these team members always make a meaningful difference in the lives of those they serve and return home with a renewed perspective.
As we plan for our next trip we are looking for those who are will support our outreach, either by joining our team or by contributing financially. We are raising $6000 so we can install wells and multi-family water catchment system, provide medical and dental clinics, improve structures, train community leaders and provide educational scholarships. Please note that no Healing Fund administration fees are deducted from donations.
