Every year, our organization runs free medical clinics in nearby towns. These clinics provide people with a check-up, medicine, basic health and hygiene information, and counseling, as well as a dentist for tooth extractions sometimes. This year, we held clinics in 6 different towns, and were able to see a total of 972 patients (men, women and children)! I had the chance to counsel a number of the women. It is heart-breaking sometimes to hear their situations, their physical illnesses which are so unnecessarily prevalent, and emotional needs. Still, it's awesome to be able to provide help to so many people, who might never otherwise receive these services.
