Kelly Green, TriMedx “While traveling to the different locations throughout the week, I noticed that most of the people in El Salvador lived in scrap metal shacks with livestock running around wild around their homes. Although the people lived in extreme poverty, they seemed to be happy and caring people that live closely together in order to bring comfort and security.” Kelly GreenTriMedx Central Office
