Hundreds of residents of Davao City and nearby areas benefited from the Bayanihan para sa Kalusugan: Serbisyong Handog ng AMSAI – a one-day medical mission held on May 21, 2025, at the AMSAI Gym, Km. 11 in Cabantian.
AMSAI Cabantian, in partnership with the SM Foundation, Inc., Barangay Indangan, Barangay Cabantian, and the Family Planning Organization of the Philippines (FPOP), organized the event, which aimed to provide accessible and quality health services to the community, especially to those with limited access to medical care.
The event offered a wide array of free medical services, including medical and dental checkups, free medicines via on-site pharmacy blood tests (random glucose, cholesterol, uric ccid) x-ray and ECG HIV/Aids testing, prenatal ultrasound, alternative health care consultations, family planning orientation, and reproductive health education seminars.
More than just a medical outreach, the mission was a true bayanihan effort, made possible through the collective dedication of local government units, military support, health professionals, and volunteers.
