To continue to meet the growing needs of our bi-national region, FEMAP Foundation made a commitment to expand Hospita de la Familia and build a new School of Nursing. WHY? Education and access to health care can make a huge difference in opening doors, widening horizons and giving people the chance to change their lives for the better. All too often, those who stand to benefit most are held back by poverty or lack of oppurtunity. Education helps disadvantaged people fundamentally and permanently. That's why we've made it our mission to give anyone in our region equal access to higher education and medical care, whatever their circumtances.
