Evaluation:
The association is in need of financial assistance to sustain the said programs. However, certain agencies are giving medicines but it cannot keep up with the needs of the patients. Most of the patients have no money to buy medicines especially expensive ones like antibiotics and any need for laboratory tests. They have to see the doctor for thorough check up and treatment. In as much as our health is our wealth we have to be careful and help support the association’s medical service.
