Children who are sick, cannot learn. Parents who are sick cannot provide for their children, who in turn, are needed to earn an income and so cannot attend school. By joining the KCO Club you help to ensure children stay in school and get an education, and so, help break the cycle poverty. Join now, or read on!
The KCO Club (for "Keep the Clinic Open") receives donations specifically for the purpose of running the June Russel-Glennon Clinic and Community Center so that it may serve health the needs of the community of San Martín and surrounding areas. Some medicines and supplies are donated, while others are purchased locally. Patients pay a token fee, or are treated without charge and in exchange for participation when necessary so that no one is turned away. While monies collected pay for utilities and simple maintenance of the Clinic, the facility is not yet fully sustainable and needs your support.
The Clinic is also Xela AID's headquarters in Guatemala.
