 Barangay De La Paz  is one of twenty-four Barangays in Binan, Laguna. People residing
 in this area have poor health status and are vulnerable to different forms of health risks. Providing 
worm treatment and pnemococcal  vaccines to people from this Barangay, has without a doubt 
helped improve and upgrade the quality of life of its residents. The medical mission project  
entrusted the town with learning opportunities that promote better health care and has afforded 
individuals with a better understanding of how diseases are transmitted. If you would like 
to help in our on-going mission in Barangay De La Paz, please let us know by
