Over 300 beneficiaries benefited from the medical and dental mission organized by SM Foundation Inc., together with the Banilad Study Center at St. Josemaria Escriva Parish in Barangay Tungkil, Minglanilla, Cebu last June 24.

Beneficiaries included children and elderly people who availed themselves of free services, such as chest X-ray, ECG, random blood sugar, blood pressure monitoring and free medicines in response to the needs of indigent families to be provided with complete health care.

In cooperation with pharmacist and nurse volunteers, the activity was a success with the extending arms of volunteer doctors from Chong Hua Hospital.

Banilad Study Center, which is located on Archbishop Reyes Ave. in Cebu City, has been a regular partner of SM Foundation Inc. for the past four years in holding health care missions.

The beneficiaries thanked the foundation and its partners for bringing free health services to the community.
