Project Histories:

|
|
Oxchuk Clinic
|
|
Oxchuk is a small clinic located in Tuxtla Gutiérrez,
Chiapas, which was equipped by the representatives of the Rotary Club
with assistance of PVO Mexico.
PVO
representatives visited the clinic with Rotarians and members of the
State Health Secretary. As
a result of this meeting, the clinic was completely remodeled and,
thanks to Bob Bundy, Oxchuk Clinic has sufficient medical equipment and
disposable supplies and instruments. |

Social Security Institute for Workers Serving the State of Chiapas
|
| PVO, in conjunction with the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints(Jesucristo de los Santos de
los Ultimos Días), furnished the Social Security Institute for
Workers (Instituto de Seguridad Social de los Trabajadores al Servicio
del Estado de Chiapas) with medical equipment and instruments and with
disposable supplies. |

Abrázame Home
|
| Located on Fray Servando Teresa de Mier, Number 104, in
the center of Mexico City, Hogar Abrázame is a shelter for children
suffering from Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
The Administration of the Patrimony for the Public Benefit
(La Administración del Patrimonio de la Beneficencia Pública)
together with the Cuauhtemoc Delegation (Delegación Cuauhtémoc) gifted the property for
the home to PVO in 1992.
At this time, the property was reconditioned,
thanks to the support of the National Lottery for Public Assistance (Lotería
Nacional Para la Asistencia Pública).
In 1996 the work was completed
and officially to the Ser Humano International
Foundation (Fundación Ser Humano Internacional, I.A.P.) for its
operations and administration, and all rights to the property were ceded. |

Nezahualcoyotl, State of Mexico.

| Since 1994, PVO
Mexico has supported the Rescue Squad (Escuadrón
de Rescate Municipal) with the donations of a computer, disposable
materials, medical equipment, and a hospital bed for accident victims in
the immediate vicinity.
PVO
also donated a Chevy van
that was transformed into an ambulance. |

| There are many more examples of the successful
collaboration in the areas of health and education. This list,
however, gives us an idea of how simple it is to create the roots of
a project.
To work in
conjunction with the private sector, the public sector and the
nonprofit community can make a difference in the quality of health
and education for those in the greatest need.
These projects do not intend to replace the participation of
the various sectors in their good works; on the contrary, they aim
to enhance and multiply the fruits of those labors on behalf of the
needy. |

A joint effort by PVO Mexico and the generous financial
contribution en 1991 of the J. Walter Thompson, Co. culminated in the
successful adaptation of the Luis G. Ramírez Valadéz Primary School to
accommodate the needs of disabled children.
