Support Utila has donated more heart, blood pressure and diabetic medications to Lance Bodden Health Center, also known as the Centro de Salud. With help from Municipalidad de Utila‘s deputy mayor Alice Hill, we were able to quickly transport the much needed medicine donation to Utila quickly from Farmacia Mary Ann.

Keeping your immune system at peak health is critical in the fight against the coronavirus. Although these medications are not for the treatment of COVID-19, they’re needed to treat pre-existing conditions that can weaken your immune system if left untreated.

 

• Irbesartan 300 mg, 2000 tablets = L 18,260
• Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg, 1000 tablets = L1,760
• Metformin 850 mg, 2000 tablets = L 8,100
• Insulin NPH, 40 = L 14,920
  TOTAL = L 43,040.00

As the pandemic continues, wearing a face mask properly continues to be a most important responsibility, and is not an option. Whenever you are outside of your home near other people, mask up! Treat your mask like your seatbelt, and drive through life responsibly.

Support Utila continues to fundraise to expand our programs impact on Utila and above all, we rely on public donations. We need your help in the fight against COVID-19. A small contribution can help go a long way in Honduras.

What started as a small fundraiser called #SupportUtila by the owner’s of Coral View Beach Resort Utila, to help provide food for those financially impacted by the pandemic, has evolved into Support Utila inc, a 501(c)3 organization, committed to continuing our original goals of helping provide food, vitamins and medicine, plus more. What that “more” is will grow over time. Until the pandemic is globally under control and is no longer a threat, we remain focused on preventive medical needs, and being prepared for a possible outbreak. Our other immediate programs include helping secure needed resources for Jasper’s Utila Animal Shelter, to keep your pets safe, to reduce stray animals, and to provide a better life for people and pet’s alike.
As our funding grows, and grants are secured, we continue working with the Municipalidad de Utila, schools, and other organizations to help provide what is needed to continue keeping Utila beautiful, to improve the lives of its residents, to keep its ocean and lands clean, and play a critical role in providing opportunity for all.
We are a solutions focused non-profit organization. Join us in being part of helping solve problems by donating or volunteering today.

Tonia Woods dropped off more donated medication to the Centro de Salud Utila – Community Health Center, thanks to your donations. Whether sharing on social media or donating, all help in our mission of increasing the medical resources immediately available on Utila.

We have started to work on bigger projects to assist in bringing more equipment onsite to the island.  With your help and contributions we will be able to make a much larger impact to all on Utila. Please visit our medical program donation page if you would like to contribute specifically to our Medical Program.

This is our 2nd medicine donation to the Centro de Salud.
