PROJECT:
Food distribution
SPJ dispenses food
to hundreds
of people each week.
Can you coordinate a food drive at your place of work, school or church? Can you make up snack bags for our children? Can you make a monetary donation for SPJ to purchase much needed food items?
Medical & Dental Care
SPJ would like every person who needs medical attention to receive it. SPJ built and operates a clinic in the colonias, free of charge. This clinic provides basic medications as prescribed by our doctors and nurses, who volunteer their time and talents on a monthly basis. We also have the ability to do ultrasounds, EKGs, and test for glucose levels. However, we do not have the ability to do x-rays or blood tests. When further studies are needed we must transport the patient and pay for studies in the city of Juarez to address those concerns.
All of these costs need to be covered by SPJ, as the patients are unable.
General Medical Care
SPJ is very appreciative of our volunteer Doctors & Nurses
and are always looking for additional medical personnel
to add to our monthly teams.
Obstetrical Care
SPJ provides diapers, formula
and baby items
as donations allow.
Perhaps you can help with the ongoing need for baby items?
Dental Care
SPJ needs more Dentists
and Hygienists
to join our medical team. Perhaps your Dentist
could be asked to join?
