In 2008, the Shalom Foundation will finalize the purchase of a medical facility in Guatemala City. This facility, named the Shalom Surgery Center, will be the base of operations for our Medical Missions Initiative and will serve as a point of light for the local community and beyond.
The surgery center is located in Zone 1 of Guatemala City, a location that is convenient to many areas of the city. Upon opening, this 12,000 square foot facility will offer 3 operating rooms, 6 pre-op beds, 2 intensive care unit beds, 14-18 recovery beds with additional space for future expansion.
Plans for 2008 include renovating the facility and outfitting the surgery center with needed equipment and supplies in collaboration with other groups, organizations and non-profits. With concerted efforts of all medical initiative partners, the opening of the Shalom Surgery Center is projected for fall 2008.

Through this facility, thousands of children will receive the medical care they so desperately need.
