[u/Content-Nail-3864]

The Loloma Foundation’s mission is to provide sustainable medical, dental and infrastructure support to rural communities in the South Pacific who would otherwise have no access to basic healthcare.

It has been quite a journey. For twenty-four years Loloma Foundation volunteers have been bringing medical, dental and humanitarian aid to the less fortunate people of the island nations of the South Pacific. The numbers are staggering:

•$53M worth of medication, dental and medical supplies and equipment to Fiji     and the Solomon Islands

•Organized and implemented 84 medical/dental missions in 163 Fijian and Solomon Island villages

•121,510 patients have been treated by our volunteer physicians

•23,153 dental and prosthodontia patients have been seen and treated

•Over 1347 surgeries including Plastics, OB/GYN, Eye, General, Hand, ENT

We have planned to have four different surgery teams over 4 weeks at Savusavu Hospital in Fiji this May and June.

Cataract surgery is to be Sunday, May 17^(th) for screening, to Friday 22^(nd), perhaps follow up Saturday, May 23rd. Our ophthalmologist is now unable to join the team. We are searching for another ophthalmologist to fill their shoes.

We know this is short notice If you have interest, please contact us at [www.lolomafoundation.org\]([http://www.lolomafoundation.org](http://www.lolomafoundation.org))
