Relief Efforts in Guánica
Since January 2020, Salud Centro has been active in Guanica with relief efforts.
Perez Family Home Restoration
The Perez family lost one room of their house on the January 7th earthquake. Since then, they were living in a makeshift camp on lot at the front of their house. Salud Centro was able to donate the material and manpower to rebuild the room in the house.
Stairs and Balcony for the Sepulveda Family
The Sepulveda family needed a better access to their home. We bought the materials in the local hardware store, negotiated with a local Contractor (to only pay for the personnel’s professional hours to perform the job) and built up a balcony and a stairway. Here are the results!
Collaboration with community organizations to improve the well-being of the impacted community
Another example of great collaboration, Team 821 identified a person in need, and Salud Centro was able to provide Mr. Mario Rivera with the much needed wheelchair.
Demolition of affected structure
Thanks to this demolition, several families will be able to return to a safe home. Salud Centro is grateful for Mayor Ismael “Titi” Rodríguez’s management in the demolition of a property that put the health and safety of several families at risk.
Sofa for the Casiano family
After achieving the demolition of the structure that put their home and safety at risk, and guided by
our desire to provide a better quality of life, we provided the Casiano family with a reclining sofa so that both patients can take their respiratory therapies comfortably at home.
Constructions Materials for the rebuilding of homes
Thanks to your donations, Salud Centro continues to support our communities by supplying materials that will help rebuild homes.
