“The experience was an eye opener as we saw hundreds of locals standing in line, occupying hallway benches, and sitting on floors waiting to see medical staff. I knew there were many people waiting who wouldn’t get help that day.”

“While traveling to the different locations throughout the week, I noticed that most of the people in El Salvador lived in scrap metal shacks with livestock running around wild around their homes.
Although the people lived in extreme poverty, they seemed to be happy and caring people that live closely together in order to bring comfort and security.”
