HEALTH FUND

Good Samaritan would like to start a health fund for its clients. Our clients commonly suffer from respiratory problems, especially during the winter, and dental problems. In addition, many people that are not in our program but who belong to our target population [orphans from Bihor County] often solicit GSB for money to buy medicines.

In wintertime, temperatures in Beius commonly reach minus 15 degrees Celsius (+5 Fahrenheit). Most of the orphans we serve live in apartments without heat. In addition, some of our clients work on outdoor construction sites. We have noticed that among our clients, the incidence of respiratory diseases and colds is higher than in the average population.

In relation to oral care, our clients face two obstacles. Besides not understanding the importance of dental care, they cannot afford it. We would like to be able to offer dental supplies to complement our instruction on proper oral care. In this way, not only are we supplying knowledge, but we are giving our clients the physical tools necessary to apply such instruction.

Good Samaritan's revolving health fund would support our clients in the purchasing of medicines, medical services, and dental services and supplies.
