Patient referrals are being accepted for the June 12-20 Guatemala City trip of The Hendersonville Rotary Club members led by Dr. Bill Taylor and Rip Lebkuecher with The Shalom Foundation.
Dentists, hygienists, eye care professionals, physicians and support team members treated more than 1400 patients while conducting their wellness clinic at Shalom School last year. The Shalom Foundation will be working with all of our Guatemala partners to serve even more individuals this year. Volunteers from this group have participated in medical mission trips to Guatemala for many years.
