During the first week in September 2012, a group of Armonía friends visited Yalahui, a village in the mountainous region of Oaxaca, Mexico, in order to set up a health clinic for the villagers.
Prior to their arrival, Irene, one of our resent graduates (and a 'Yalahuian' herself),visited this small village and started preparations for the health clinic under the guidance of Saúl and Pilar.Irene and Leo, one of our university students, stayed in Yalahui to finish orchestrating all the logistics for receive the group which consisted of doctors, nurses and an optometrist from different parts of the world - USA, UK, Australia and of course, Mexico. Along with their skills, the visitors brought thousands of prescription eyeglasses!
Everyone did a wonderful job and the community was very loving and gracious toward our guests! Armonía was able to serve around 600 people over two days, as well as acquaint ourselves with most members of the Yalahui community.
We look forward to posting a subtitled interview we did with Irene and letting you know more about Armonía's work.
