>> GMR Annual Walk-A-Thon - May 22, 2010
>> Thank You for Your Support at the 25th Anniversary GMR Fundraising Dance <<
Founded in 1984, GMR celebrates 25 years of continued effort to provide needed medical supplies and equipment to a number of Healthcare providers in Guyana.
GMR’s original mission of working in close partnership with Direct Relief International (DRI) who obtains a majority of the equipment and medical supplies that are shipped remains quite strong. Like any successful organization, GMR continues to assess if there are additional Healthcare horizons for us to cover, and we have.
GMR has added numerous projects to its portfolio which include
- Stemming the tide - diagnose, treat and care for persons living with HIV/AIDS with an emphasis on testing pregnant women to prevent transmission of the disease from mother to child
- St. Joseph’s Mobile Clinic - Provides local communities with free medical services to low or no-income families. 90% of patients served earn less than G$13,000 p.a. = US$66. Remaining 10% earn less than G$25,000 p.a. = US$126
- DESKAN Institute – Provides training in Guyana by a volunteer USA firm in the area of Preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS/STD/TB and new infections
- Onetime Special Projects – such an the X-Ray center in the Mahaicony Hospital; a Mortuary in the Mahaicony Hospital, both to serve the Guyanese community where these facilities were previously void.
