The program is led by Chairman Lester Estrella and his team of dedicated volunteers who are passionate about giving back to the community. The main objective of Juan Life is to provide primary healthcare in the most a ordable way possible. They have initiated a medical mission that focuses on providing ECG tests, urinalysis, blood analysis, x-rays, and free medicines to those who need it the most.

The program's medical mission is held in Quezon City Memorial Circle, one of the most iconic landmarks in the city. This location provides a suitable venue for the program, as it is easily accessible and well-known to the community. The volunteers set up tents and tables to accommodate the seniors who come to receive medical assistance. The setup is well-organized and e cient, ensuring that each senior citizen receives the proper care they need.

The program has been successful in providing much-needed healthcare services to senior citizens who may not have been able to a ord it otherwise. Many of the seniors who come to the medical mission express their gratitude for the assistance they receive. They appreciate the e orts of JCI Manila and the volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure that they receive quality healthcare. The volunteers themselves also find fulfillment in the work they do. They feel proud to be part of a program that gives back to the community and makes a positive impact on the lives of others. They are happy to share their skills and knowledge with those who need it the most, and they find joy in seeing the smiles on the faces of the seniors they assist.
