Physicians for Peace our
Purpose
Physicians for Peace envisions a future in which men, women and children have full and equal access to quality healthcare. Through collaborative partnerships, we mobilize volunteers to educate, train, empower and support healthcare professionals serving the world’s vulnerable populations. That’s our inspiration. Our missions and our programs are guided by a core set of values and one bold conviction: we believe that, together, we can change the world. Why? Because we believe health is a basic human need, and a building block for peace and prosperity around the world. We believe that respect and cooperation can take you far. We send missions and supplies only at the request of our in-country partners, and only after ensuring that our programs and resources align with our partners’ needs. We collaborate with other organizations to reduce redundancies in programming and promote solutions that are sustainable and replicable. We believe in education, and the power of education to build a skilled workforce of healthcare professionals in underserved areas.
Without our community of supporters, our work would be impossible. Together, we’re working toward our vision for the world, one mission at a time. Together, we can change the world.

message
Dear Friends, As I reflect on 2010, three words capture the mood among staff and volunteer leaders: hopeful, committed and inspired. Because of your support, Physicians for Peace is stronger, more agile and better positioned to respond to our partners’ healthcare needs today than we have been at any other point in our 21-year history. That’s a milestone worth celebrating. In this report, you’ll learn more about our year through actual stories from the field. Whether you’ve volunteered, supported a mission financially or through an in-kind donation, or helped us reach out to new friends through personal connections or social media, you’ve played an invaluable role in our year, and for that I thank you. Like my staff and members of our Board of Trustees, I feel hopeful, committed and inspired as I look ahead to 2011 and beyond. ~ Brigadier General Ron Sconyers (USAF, Ret.)

CHARLES E. HORTON SR., MD (1925-2006) Founder, Physicians for Peace Physicians for Peace began with a vision to build peace and international friendships through medicine. Dr. Charles Horton saw the need for quality healthcare as the great unifier among nations, a requirement so powerful and yet so basic that it should transcend economic, political and cultural barriers.
Two decades later, Physicians for Peace has gained respect as an international nonprofit. Dr. Horton’s founding philosophy is still the center of each and every mission:
“If you heal someone, you help one person. If you teach someone to heal, you help many.” DR. CHARLES E. HORTON SR.

OUR
Missions
Physicians for Peace missions rise above borders and unite cultures. Our work happens in the U.S. and in partner countries. Our work is a team of rehabilitation professionals fitting an eight-year-old earthquake victim with a prosthetic leg. It’s volunteers returning from the field to present a debrief, and possible next steps, to our staff, volunteers and partners. It’s a volunteer physician making the case for systems that value collaborative, patient-focused care at an international conference. Our work is surgeons in the West Bank providing a toddler with corrective surgery,

MEDICAL PROGAMS
Stories that inspired us.
Eva’s story In rural areas throughout Central America, families cook meals over open flames. The fires are a source of warmth and nourishment, a place for people to gather and talk. But these fires also present danger. Eva, a beautiful three-year-old, learned this devastating lesson on a warm summer night in Nicaragua. Eva innocently reached for the handle of a soup pot. Boiling water spilled over her hands, arms, chest and face. Second-degree burns covered more than half of Eva’s body. Her parents weren’t sure that Eva would survive. Fortunately, a pediatric burn care unit in Managua, two hours by bus from Eva’s home, had the resources and trained healthcare team to care for her. Two Physicians for Peace volunteer occupational therapists worked together with local healthcare professionals to discuss and apply techniques to reduce scarring. Seamstresses sewed Eva’s compression garments using special materials to ensure that, upon recovery, Eva would have complete use of her hands. Therapists guided her through rehabilitation exercises. Weeks after the accident, Eva could be seen toddling around the burn care unit, a lollipop in one hand, a Lego block clenched in the other and a smile on her face.

Jean’s Story Like thousands of Haitians, Jean Denis suffered terrible losses during and after the earthquake of January 2010. People he loved, including his father, perished and things that he loved, such as his home, were destroyed. Because he was badly injured in the earthquake, he also lost his leg. At first it was difficult for Jean Denis, who was 22 when the earthquake decimated Port-auPrince, to imagine his life as an amputee. He wanted to be a teacher, and until the disaster, he lived life with extraordinary energy and resolve. Jean was worried that having a disability might change him – and other people’s perception of him – forever. When he arrived at the Hanger Clinic on the grounds of Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Deschapelles, a team of healthcare professionals, including Physicians for Peace volunteer physical therapists, collaborated to fit Jean Denis with a prosthesis and provide rehabilitation. Not only did the team give him a prosthetic leg, they gave him back his sense of self. Today, Jean Denis, who has returned to the clinic since his initial visit for periodic fittings and therapy, has renewed dreams and aspirations. Now, he wants to help rebuild Haiti as an engineer.

Robin’s Story When Robin Jones, a Physicians for Peace volunteer nurse and midwife, stepped into the maternity ward of a hospital in Niger State, Nigeria, she was met by a wall of silence, a stark contrast to the hum of activity around the rest of the hospital. As an experienced healthcare professional, Robin knew that something was wrong. By the door, a mother huddled on a delivery bed beside her motionless newborn. As the baby boy’s life slipped away, a Nigerian nurse hovered nearby, watchful but just as powerless as the despondent mother, because she wasn’t trained to perform newborn resuscitation. Drawing on her previous experience, both in the U.S. and as a veteran Physicians for Peace volunteer in rural Africa, Robin moved fast and fashioned a rudimentary resuscitation mask from the top of a water bottle. The makeshift mask fit perfectly above the baby’s nose and mouth. Robin worked to revive the newborn, using techniques from both countries. After an hour-long fight, the baby could breathe, and his grateful mother could finally rejoice in the birth of her precious son.

Mary Grace’s STory Four years ago, Mary Grace was an active teenager, confident and thriving in Ilocos Sur, a northwestern region of the Philippines. Tragedy changed the course of her life when a friend accidentally struck Mary Grace with a coat hanger. The metal swiped her face and lodged into her left eye, causing irreparable damage to her vision. The appearance of her eye after the accident – shrunken and drooping – devastated the girl. Relatives watched helplessly as Mary Grace transformed from an outgoing teen to a young woman who hid her face self-consciously. Mary Grace received medical attention after the accident, but she did not receive proper follow-up care. Thanks to our established program in the Philippines, we connected Mary Grace with the healthcare providers who could change her life. Mary Grace’s vision could not be improved, but an ophthalmologist in Manila restored her appearance and her sense of self with an optical implant. Weeks later, Mary Grace sent Physicians for Peace an update after she won first place at the regional Philippine Science Fair. By then, Mary Grace’s complete metamorphosis was evident. She smiled at the camera, her gaze steady, her long hair pulled confidently back from her beautiful face.
Seeing
clearly
Ninety percent of the people who are blind in the world live in developing countries. In the majority of these cases, blindness is treatable or preventable. Through Seeing Clearly, local eye care professionals are properly equipped and trained to provide comprehensive eye exams to underserved populations. Patients also receive appropriate medical treatment and prescription eyeglasses as needed. The story of Mary Grace isn’t a story about miracles. It’s a story about the strong network of Physicians for Peace-Philippines. Our robust program in the Philippines is the culmination of that network of volunteers and supporters from the Philippines

and the U.S. In areas of the world where health resources are scarce, many people cannot attend classes, work or care for their families because they cannot see. By giving patients the opportunity to see clearly, our volunteers, and the professionals they’ve trained, present patients with the chance to see the world in an entirely new light.
Dr. Juan Montero II Physicians for Peace honored Dr. Juan Montero this year with our first Excellence in Service Award for his longtime support of our mission and his humanitarian efforts in the Philippines. Since 1995, Dr. Montero has recruited volunteers and traveled to the Philippines dozens of times to share his expertise and help Physicians for Peace-Philippines grow from serving a few hundred patients each year to serving thousands annually. Throughout his career, he has made a profound commitment to helping underserved communities in the Philippines and the U.S.

Bayardo’s Story Bayardo Perez was just seven years old when his mother died. He went to live with his grandmother, but caring for young Bayardo posed steep challenges for the elderly woman. He soon took up work on the street, selling odds and ends to help his family pay for their basic needs. Fortunately, Bayardo met representatives of the ORPHANetwork, one of Physicians for Peace’s friends on the ground in Nicaragua. This chance meeting would change his life. Staff members quickly sensed Bayardo’s potential. He seemed like a young man who yearned for an education. Bayardo wanted to contribute to his family’s livelihood and improve the lives of those around him. He just needed an opportunity. Thanks to collaboration among Physicians for Peace, ORPHANetwork and the Universidad Nacional Autónoma in León, Bayardo is now one of 19 students enrolled in Nicaragua’s first dental assistant program, an initiative that will give Bayardo the chance to provide better dental care while earning a living. Soon he’ll graduate from the program. In five years he dreams of working along the Coco River near his home, where he can help patients and his family.

Beating
Teaching, training and healing
Hearts
In Morocco, a 67-year-old man entered an operating room and made history – becoming one of the first patients in the country to undergo off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. For years, he had suffered from debilitating chest pains that kept him from truly living his life. While off-pump or “beating heart” surgery has become common in the U.S., in the understaffed public hospitals of Fes, Morocco, the procedure was unprecedented. After his surgery, the patient gained something he thought he’d lost forever: the chance to live his life without pain. The story behind the headlines was a story of cooperation among a dynamic group of Moroccan and Physicians for Peace surgeons, anesthesiologists and nurses partnering together to teach, train and heal. This team transcended cultural and language barriers, sharing insight and best practices as they worked side by side toward the shared goal of a successful operation. The Physicians for Peace team also delivered high-need supplies and provided training on existing, but unused equipment already available in the hospital. Their dedication to meaningful, lasting training paid off when, eight months later, a Physicians for Peace volunteer on a follow-up mission proudly noted that the team in Morocco was still deploying many of the surgical techniques imparted during the previous mission.
Specialized
surgery
Physicians for Peace conducts Specialized Surgery missions to address the immediate clinical care needs of local populations with limited access to quality healthcare. Many Physicians for Peace missions focus on specific surgical needs outside of our standing programs. These missions provide life-saving and life-changing surgeries in cleft palate reconstruction, open-heart surgery, limb reconstruction and other areas based on patients’ and partners’ needs. The program also provides instruction and training in places where the concept of continuing medical education is still novel. While delivering hands-on patient care, our volunteers partner with local medical staff to teach and demonstrate new techniques and procedures.

John’s Story On a short break from a mission in the Philippines, John Knight, MPH, co-founder of Seeing Clearly, dipped into the ocean to experience some of the region’s world-renowned surfing. As he emerged from the water, a woman approached him and thanked him. Earlier in the day, she had received a pair of eyeglasses from Physicians for PeacePhilippines, a gift that allowed her, for the first time, to truly see the beautiful ocean and beaches that have made her home famous.
Gifts in Kind Through our Gifts in Kind program, we send medical equipment and supplies to partners based on their identified needs. Drawing on two decades of experience, and with the support of our donors, we provide partners with both basic supplies and sophisticated medical instruments and equipment. One gift can change a life and our Gifts in Kind program changes lives every day.

Heroes
Weeks after the January 2010 earthquake in Haiti, Physicians for Peace became a founding member of the Haitian Amputee Coalition. Our efforts to mobilize money, supplies and volunteers to help Haiti’s disabled population put into sharp focus the benefits of longtime partnerships in the U.S. and Haiti. By year’s end, over 600 Haitian amputee patients had received rehabilitative and prosthetic treatment from teams of qualified healthcare professionals at the on-site clinic established by the coalition at Albert Schweitzer Hospital. Many of these patients lost a limb in the earthquake of January 2010; others had been waiting for a prosthesis for years. We also supported Haiti with a nationwide prosthetic drive that exceeded the capacity of our 10,000-square-foot warehouse. Our experiences in Haiti have reinforced our belief that strategic nongovernmental organization (NGO) partnerships can play a leadership role in paving the road for real solutions in Haiti and beyond. With gratitude, we recognize our partners and key supporters in these efforts: Haitian Amputee Coalition

By working together to improve education and training, Physicians for Peace volunteers touch the lives of both healthcare professionals and patients. On missions in the field and from our office in Norfolk, Va., our volunteers strive to make measurable, sustainable and long-lasting improvements to healthcare, ensuring that local professionals have the training and resources they need to assist patients in their communities. Without our volunteers, our work would be impossible. On behalf of the lives you’ve touched, we gratefully acknowledge your commitment in 2010, and beyond.

When is a bandage more than fabric to cover a wound? When is a hospital bed more than a temporary place to lay your head? When is a crutch more than an ambulatory aid? A pair of glasses more than just a tool for better vision?
