Hi everyone! 👋 We’ve welcomed a lot of new supporters to our pages recently, so we wanted to take a moment to introduce ourselves and share a little more about who we are.

Based in Richmond, Extra Mile Pediatrics was founded in 2018 by Kimball and Jeff Mapp with a mission to provide repeated pediatric care to patients and families in Central America who face significant barriers to healthcare.

EMP, a small nonprofit, has grown tremendously thanks to the dedication of our volunteers, partners, and supporters. On each trip, our teams care for approximately 300–350 patients, bringing our total to more than 6,000 patient visits to date.

One of the most important parts of our mission is that we return to the same communities every six months. By building lasting relationships and trust, we’re able to provide consistent care, monitor children’s growth and health over time, and support families far beyond a single visit. Every clinic includes comprehensive care such as vision screenings, nutrition support, health education, and preventive care.

We’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve these communities and to share our time, skills, and resources where they’re needed most.

Thank you for being here and for being part of our journey!

Be on the lookout for part 2 as we dive deeper!
