Calimesa medical mission

This week Paya Bay is again hosting the medical mission from Calimesa, California. This morning I took these photos of people from the surrounding communities who come and receive free dental, vision, and general medical care from the American health professionals and their support crew. The dentists and doctors help many people during their hectic, four-day service schedule. Paya Bay proudly supports this kind and generous gift to the island community.

For the fifth consecutive year, this past week Paya Bay hosted the 44 participants of the medical mission from Calimesa, California. The American doctors, dentists and hygienists set up their field clinic in the lower floor of the beach house and proceeded to provide free dental and medical care to hundreds of less fortunate people from nearby island communities.

In addition to health services, mission participants also engage in various community projects aimed at improving schools and other facilities.

The group wrapped up their week with the Garífuna show at the Black Iguana and a bonfire on Bliss Beach.

Thank you so much, Calimesa, for all the beautiful energy you bring to Roatan! Learn more about this awesome mission by visiting their Facebook page.

thank you, calimesa!

The group of volunteer doctors, dentists, nurses, hygienists, and support staff from Calimesa, California are back once again this year with their beautiful mission of kindness. During their very busy week, they set up a field clinic in the lower floor of the beach house, and provide hundreds of less fortunate people of eastern Roatan communities with free medical and dental care. It is such a generous and beautiful gesture on the part of these outstanding Americans. Thank you, Calimesa!
