Hesperian Health Guides is having a story contest just for RPCVs

50 year anniversary -newly revised in 2023

HESPERIAN HEALTH GUIDES is the publisher of the beloved Where There Is No Doctor and 11 other books published in multiple languages that have been used by Peace Corps Volunteers serving around the world to support individuals and communities in their struggles to realize the right to good health since the early ’60s.

Hesperian invites PCVs and RPCVs to share your stories of how any of the Hesperian books helped you during your Peace Corps service  in your efforts to give care to the people of your communities.

AND, if you have them, any photos of our books in action can be sent with your stories.

Please email your submissions or any questions you have to vanessa@hesperian.org .

Winners will be chosen at random.

The deadline to enter this contest is August 25, 2023.

PRIZES: 4 winners will be able to send a complete Hesperian Library set to a community of their choice. This set includes Where There Is No Doctor, Helping Health Workers Learn, Where There Is No Dentist, Health Actions for Women and more!

PS – Of course, anyone can make a donation to Hesperian that can be designated to support the sending of books to your Peace Corps country at no cost for the recipient.
