The Rotary Club of Boise and it’s International Committee are happy to share an exciting update following a recent technical visit to the Mobile Cancer Screening Unit project in Colombia.

The unit exceeded expectations and fully complies with all requirements established by the Colombian Secretary of Health. Both the design and execution are truly impressive and reflect the high standards we hoped to achieve. The unit includes:

  • Two fully equipped clinical offices designed for cytology exams and mammograms
  • A centrally located bathroom accessible from three different points
  • Two access stairways to ensure safe and efficient entry
  • Two independent water tanks
  • Electrical power supplied by both a generator and solar panels
  • Internet connectivity and television equipment to support medical examinations and patient comfort

This project represents a significant step forward in expanding access to critical cancer screening services, and it would not be possible without our clubs support and commitment.

Thank you to Glenn and Cristina and the World Services Committee for making this happen.  More updates will be shared as the project continues to move forward.
