St. Andrew’s Children’s Clinic


Please read the story about St. Andrews Clinic posted in April 2014 on PBS by clicking here, or watch the video below.
OVERVIEW: For over 45 years, St. Andrew’s Children’s Clinic (The Clinic) has provided free, specialized medical care to children living in Mexico who cannot get or afford the care they need in their home country. The Clinic is held at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Nogales, Arizona. As far as they know, it is the only one of its kind along the U.S./Mexico Border. The Clinic is a non-denominational, non-profit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. The volunteer professional health care staff sees approximately 225-250 patients on the first Thursday of each month except July. 

THEIR NEED: The children suffer from a wide variety of serious medical problems and disabling conditions, and their parents bring them to The Clinic for a miracle. Children are seen from age 1 month to 18 years old. All patients have legal border-crossing documents. The Clinic operation in the U.S. has worked closely with Immigration Services to ensure proper documentation of all the patients and families. In turn, Immigration Services personnel have volunteered their own time to come in early on Clinic Day to ensure that the patients have the documents they need for a timely crossing. The love of the volunteers is everywhere as they faithfully return each month to help patients.

​Additionally, every October, in cooperation with Children’s Surgery International of Minneapolis and CIMA Hospital, approximately 50-60 children have cleft palate/cleft lip surgery in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. This special mission involves volunteers on both sides of the US/Mexico Border who work with the medical team to give patients smiles and a much better life. 



HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Getting involved is easy: Call St Andrew’s Children’s Clinic main office (520-648-3242) and tell them you would like to help. They will recommend you first sign up to visit their Clinic on the next Clinic day (first Thursday of each month except July) to take a tour and watch their video. Next, they will ask you to visit their visitor center and review the list of volunteer possibilities. If you would like to donate, ask them what kind of items are in high demand. Cash donations are always welcome. The Clinic welcomes tours, volunteers (medical and nonmedical), in-kind donations, and year-round friends and supporters. 98% of all donations go directly to patient care.
