A Dream Realized in Bolivia
Marcia S • Nov 12, 2015
We are incredibly excited to announce that HOPE worldwide Bolivia officially opened The International Medical Center in La Paz, Bolivia on October 3, 2015. The Center provides high-quality medical care that is a sustainable social enterprise, which means that the clinic proceeds will go towards supporting health services and social programs run by HOPE worldwide Bolivia and our partnership Foundation Arco Iris. These services and programs are focused on meeting the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable children and families in La Paz.
During our opening celebration weekend, the HOPE worldwide Bolivia team welcomed a number of our donors and supporters who came from all parts of the globe.
Children from Foundation Arco Iris performed a traditional Bolivian dance for the guests.
