St. Andrew's Children's Clinic

For 38 years, St. Andrew’s Children’s Clinic has provided free, specialized medical care to children living in Mexico who cannot get the care or afford the care they need in their home country.

St. Andrew’s Children’s Clinic is a non-denominational, non-profit organization. Approximately 200-250 children are seen the first Thursday of each month except July. All medical staff are volunteers. They provide medical specialty care to our patients. We also distribute food, clothes, and toys to them. Every October, in cooperation with Children's Surgery International and CIMA Hospital, approximately 45 children have cleft palate/cleft lip surgery in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. This mission has become a special project because it involves enthusiastic volunteers on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border who work with the medical team to give patients smiles and a much better life.

In 2011, with the help of generous donors and volunteers, St. Andrew’s Children’s Clinic provided the following:

We are very proud to report to you that 97% of all donations goes to direct patient care.
