COTA Finishes Team 2011 in Salama, Guatemala
These are a few of the outstanding professional volunteers who helped Children of the Americas on our recent medical/surgical/dental team last week. Thanks to the dedication of over 100 volunteers, we were able to see 1,600 clinic patients, perform 83 surgeries, assist 120 dental patients and donate 4,200 prescriptions to the citizens of this northern city. Twenty prosthetics patients were fit for donated limbs and donated walkers and crutches were given out.
Great job COTA volunteers!

I am always in awe that COTA can asemble a team of 120 preofessionals from around the country, have them "parachute" in to a remote location, work so well as a team under adverse conditions and produce so much work. Helping people is the most important part of what COTA does but metrics set benchmarkjs for the next trip. Dick
