Central Texas Medical Center's Mission

Central Texas Medical Center has teamed up with Pan American Health Services, a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting malnutrition, to help impoverished people in Honduras.
In the last five years, CTMC has gone to Honduras seven times, and last year they helped over 1300 people in just four days.
The organization operates a nutritional rehabilitation center in the mountains of North Western Honduras in Peña Blanca. The center was started in 1965 by Texan Dr. Stephen Youngberg. Patients range in age from 18 months to adults.
