David Archuleta and Angels for a Cause to Raise Money for the Lisa Lopes Foundation Medical Center in Honduras

    ATLANTA, GA, October 29, 2009 MaiMai News -- David Archuleta and Angels For A Cause (AFAC) partner with the Lisa Lopes Foundation (LLF) to help raise $10,000 to launch the new medical center in Honduras.

The Lisa Lopes Foundation medical center will serve thousands of families and children living in impoverished areas of Honduras, with health conditions among the worst in the Western Hemisphere. Honduras is the second poorest country in Central America.

An estimated 1.5 million Hondurans were without access to health care in 2008. With the highest Aids rate in Central America, the quality and access to health care are directly tied to income levels. Health care for the urban and rural poor is extremely limited.

The Lisa Lopes Foundation medical center will provide free health services, establish an ongoing rotation of dental and medical brigades that will provide on-site services, ensure that the center is prepared with the basics in dental and medical supplies and provide a comfortable working environment for Medical and Dental Brigades or anyone servicing the area and staying at the center.

ABOUT LISA "LEFT EYE" LOPES FOUNDATION (LLF)
Headquartered in Stone Mountain, Georgia, the Lisa Lopes Foundation (LLF) was developed in
2003. LLF was created by Lisa's mother, Wanda Lopes-Colemon, her brother Ronald Lopes and family friend Anashay Murphy. The mission of LLF is to provide access to Basic Health, Education, Self-Awareness and Recreational Programs to children living in low-income communities within the United States and Central America. LLF was inspired by Lisa's dream of building a children's home on land she purchased in Honduras. Shortly after revealing her plans to her family, Lisa passed away in an auto accident in Honduras. Four years later LLF opened Lisa's Home of Love, a 10,000 sq. ft., residential facility.
