Medical Mission with Hand Washing Demonstration, Breast Cancer Detection, Career Guidance and Feeding Program
A medical mission was held at Phase 1 Masepla in Barangay Mampang last February 5 (Monday) in partnership with Batch 1993 of the Zamboanga Chong Hua School, Cuidad Medical Zamboanga, Zamboanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry Foundation Inc. and the Silsilah Dialogue Movement. The said medical mission in is line with the celebration of the World Interfaith Harmony Week who catered to about 150 residences, which has simultaneous checkups on mothers and children. Most have benefitted on the Consultation, Breast Cancer Detection, Hand washing, Career guidance and feeding program. With the help of the Barangay Council of Mampang and the Task Force Zamboanga the mission became orderly and peacefully.
This medical mission was an instrument to displaced people living in the area- people who cannot go to hospitals, people who were malnourished because of scarcity of food, people who do not bear in mind of their hygiene because they don’t have a good place to stay and people who don’t follow the doctor’s prescription because they do not have any money.
Residents of barangay Mampang expressed their deepest gratitude to the said medical mission. And the recipients knew that some people are willing to reach out and still care for them.
Thus, the partners are looking forward to another collaboration to assist the needy. They may not be able to cure everyone, but at least they haveenlightened them that there are groups who are always there to try to assist the best way they can.
