Shannon Darrow ......... Student at Life

I am writing to those chiropractors that see the vision on behalf of Spinal Missions which is a group of chiropractic students in Atlanta that organizes and conducts chiropractic trips to El Salvador. We just returned from a very successful mission where we worked with Salvadorian chiropractors, medical doctors, surgeons and naturopaths to organize free clinics for the underserved population in remote cities and villages. The trip was very successful and we were able to serve several thousand people over the course of 10 days. Through our efforts we made a large impact in terms of providing much needed care and health education.

We will be returning to El Salvador for another trip from January 2-10, 2009. Our goal is to serve even more people than we did on our last mission, but in order to make this trip as successful as the last, we need the resources to do so. Because we are primarily a group of students, the success of this trip hinges on the donations of companies like yours. Any financial or material donations that your company can offer would be greatly appreciated, with 100% being used for the benefit of this underserved population. We hope you will join the other companies that have donated to this worthy cause.   Recognition for any donations will be made during the trip and through our organization’s our marketing materials in the form of pictures, t-shirts, etc.

Again, any help would be greatly appreciated, both by our group of chiropractic students, and by the doctors in El Salvador who take time off from their clinical practices to partake in such worthwhile endeavors and serve humanity.

Please Contact Me if you can help. sdarrow@spinalmissions.com
