All donations, however large or small, are used for the Adelante Mujer program and are tax deductible.

Healing the Sick


Your support of this ministry allows us to help fund the educational and training expenses of Nicaraguan women wishing to become doctors. These medical students attend the nationally certified School of Intercultural Medicine at URACCAN University which is located in their own country of Nicaragua.

The average family income is less than $2,000 (US dollars) per year and approximately $1,600 is used for food. Because medical students have unique expenses for supplies and equipment, Adelante Mujer pays approximately $1,300 per student per year.

The first eight Adelante Mujer doctors graduated on December 12, 2014 and five additional Adelante Mujer doctors pronounced the Hippocratic Oath on January 27, 2016. A third class of nine became doctors on December 5, 2016 with nine more joining their rank on February 24 of 2018. Donors have already helped 31 young women become doctors! Currently 38 medical students are receiving financial assistance from Adelante Mujer, Inc.

The Reason Why


“Whatever you do to others, you do to me,” are the words that inspire us to reach out to help our sisters and brothers in Nicaragua.

We realize that our donors do not know the young women for whom they donate money and the recipients of the donations do not know the donors. We are truly blessed to be the connection between generous donors and young women with the desire to serve their people as medical doctors.

Sponsoring Future Doctors in Nicaragua

Adelante Mujer welcomes your financial assistance in funding university expenses for young women who will serve in one of the poorest areas of the Western Hemisphere where there is only one doctor per approximately 9,000 persons.  Adelante Mujer helps needy women students pay for school supplies and the expensive medical supplies and equipment required for their Intercultural Medical Program of URACCAN University in Bilwi/Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua.  Each student also receives money to pay for one meal per school day because some were not able to afford the food at the university.

The very first eight Adelante Mujer doctors graduated on December 12, 2014 and on January 27, 2016 five additional Adelante Mujer students pronounced the Hippocratic Oath and became doctors. December 5, 2016 marked the addition of nine Adelante Mujer doctors with nine more becoming doctors on February 24, 2018.  Currently there are 31 Adelante Mujer doctors who have received financial assistance from Adelante Mujer.

For semester one of 2018, 38 Adelante Mujer students are in the process of pursuing a degree in medicine.
