Providing Access to Healthcare in Bolivia for Over 2 Decades: Mano a Mano Bolivia

Mano a Mano's first counterpart organization established in Bolivia was Mano a Mano Bolivia, which has been working in Bolivia since 1996. To date, Mano a Mano Bolivia has constructed 178 health clinics throughout Bolivia, which had over 1 million patient visits in 2021. We recently dedicated our 2 newest clinic projects in Estaño Colorado and Guadalupe at the end of March 2022: https://manoamano.org/blog/dedicating...

Mano a Mano’s mission is: “Partnering together – Hand in Hand – to transform the health and well-being of Bolivian communities in need.” Established in Minnesota in 1994, Mano a Mano has been guided by the simple, yet powerful premise that groups of committed individuals can reach across national boundaries to make a dramatic difference in the lives of others. We have now grown to include 5 counterpart organizations - 1 in Minnesota, and 4 in Cochabamba - but improving health for Bolivian communities in need continues to be one of our main focus areas.

Mano a Mano Clinics: 1,107,024 Patient Visits in 2021 - https://manoamano.org/blog/mano-a-man...

Every Mano a Mano project is a partnership: with health projects, Mano a Mano Bolivia oversees and manages the construction of each clinic from start to finish; the local community and municipal government participates throughout the process; and Mano a Mano International Partners and US donors provide the seed money that make each project possible (other countries also provide financial support). Thank you to the many people involved!
