PAANC sponsors and participates in a number of humanitarian projects within our community and in the Philippines. We believe it is our responsibility to provide aid to those in need. Volunteers are always needed to help continue our humanitarian service.

Carolina Medical Mission:

The Carolina Medical Mission is the primary humanitarian project of the nonprofit organization, PAANC. Since 1994, the annual mission has served thousands of our fellow Filipinos.With their dedicated volunteer professionals, CMM provides free Medical, Ophthalmic, Surgical, and Dental services to the many disadvantaged, health-impaired individuals in the rural areas of the Philippines. In recent years, the mission also started an anti-TB multiple drug therapy project. At the conclusion of each mission, the venue/ hospital receives gifts of medical supplies and some surgical/anesthesiology instruments from CMM.  For more information visit the CMM Website.

The PAANC Scholarship Committee is appealing to members families and friends to help build up the Scholarship Fund in order for it to be self-sustaining. The current Philippine economic and political instability has seriously affected the livelihood of many, especially that of low-income families. We must continue to provide scholarship grants to underprivileged, but promising and talented young people and give them the opportunity to receive a proper education. The returns for your generosity can be best measured in satisfaction and in blessings. Scholarship Forms
