Financial needs
PAC - Antioquia is continuously seeking National and International sponsors prepared to help with the cost of each mission. It also requests donations of materials, medicines, anaesthetics and biomedical equipment that allow it to carry out the consultations, diagnostic aids and surgeries.
The majority of the existing equipment was donated by various Embassies and by National and International Foundations and in some cases needs to be updated or replaced.
The PAC - Antioquia aircraft are carefully maintained by following strict programmes and the avionics require constant updating in order to ensure flight safety. National and International entities are requested to also help with funds for this.
