Comandos de Salvamento had the opportunity again to collaborate with Free Wheel Chair Mission and Rescue Task force in giving out some wheelchairs to promote our philosophy that everyone should be able to ambulate.  The donations were accepted at Hospital Rosales by General surgeon Rafael Romero and at the -Help me to Live- Foundation by president Leonor de Llach.  The purpose of the donation was to assist patients ambulate easier in the hospital emergency and waiting rooms.  FWCM El Salvador representative Cristina Amaya and Comandos from the central base and Ayutuxtepeque were present.

Journalist Olimpia Alvarez of the Telecorporación Salvadoreña “TCS” learned how to combat dengue while documenting the work of the Comandos at the Instituto Nacional Francisco Morazán in San Salvador. Olimpia wanted to give her viewers a taste of what it is like to work as a comando eradicating mosquitos that carry the dengue virus. Dengue can become a problem when stagnant water creates a perfect habitat for mosquito larvae to grow and multiply. Comandos continue to donate their time to improve preventive public healthcare by offering this free service of fumigation via their “Vectores” “zancudo combat crew”. Fotos CDS.
