New partnership: In recent years SHAHICA has partnered with Dr. George Bwelle from ASCOVIME to provide free surgeries during our yearly outreaches.
Individuals and organizations are invited to sponsor a day of medical outreach (cost=$500). This covers the expenses of supplemental medications, laboratory tests, interpreters, and transportation.
