Medical brigade in Colimes: health care in the Pueblo Nuevo recinto

Brigade in Pueblo Nuevo

On Wednesday May 13, 2026, the team from Fundación LIRES traveled to the recinto Pueblo Nuevo to transform realities.

Thanks to the invitation of our friend Jhonson Jiménez Mota and his entire team, we joined hearts to care for our children, older adults and people with disabilities.

Services provided

We were able to provide the following services in the community:

• General Medicine and distribution of free medicines/vitamins.
• Physical Therapy and Dentistry.
• Optometry, glucose testing and vital signs.
• Manicure and pedicure.
• Mole removal.

Partners and donors

None of this would be possible without the heart of our partners. Our eternal gratitude to DYVENPRO (Grupo DIFARE), Kronos Laboratorios and Rocnarf laboratories for their invaluable contribution of medicines.

Thank you Andrea Alcívar for the gift of eyeglasses, and thank you June Castagneto for the pencils and vitamins that were handed out at this brigade.
