Arizona Tribune - PPX Hosts Medical Outreach Campaign for Local Communities

Following its December 2025 donation of medical equipment, furniture, and essential supplies to the Huaranchal Health Center, PPX, through its Peruvian subsidiaries, recently organized and successfully carried out a two-day medical outreach campaign on February 21 and 22, 2026 for residents of the district of Huaranchal and nearby communities, including Igor, Tres Piedras and surrounding villages, located in the province of Otuzco, La Libertad region.

The initiative was very well received by the local population and represents another step in strengthening the relationship between the Company and the communities that host its operations.

Highlights of the medical campaign included:

• A medical team of seven specialist physicians and one nurse traveled from Trujillo to provide professional healthcare services to local residents.

• The transport and installation of specialized medical equipment for the Huaranchal Health Center, including ultrasound units, dental and laboratory equipment used to test for diabetes and cholesterol levels.

• Donation of medications and medical supplies to the Huaranchal Health Center to support ongoing local healthcare services.

• Medical services related to pediatrics, gynecology, ophthalmology, general medicine, internal medicine, laboratory diagnostics, and pharmacy.

Approximately 2,000 residents, including children and adults, received medical consultations and treatment during the two-day campaign.

Working in coordination with the staff of the Huaranchal District Health Center, the visiting medical team ensured proper attention for elderly residents, pregnant women, and children, helping address healthcare needs in communities that often have limited access to specialized medical services.

PPX intends to continue organizing similar medical campaigns in the future, in coordination with government health authorities and local community leaders, as part of the Company's ongoing commitment to supporting the well-being of neighboring communities and fostering sustainable, responsible development in the region.

PPX is pleased to share several photographs from the medical campaign illustrating the services provided during the two-day event. Images reflect the collaborative effort between the visiting medical team, local health authorities and PPX personnel to deliver comprehensive healthcare services to the Huaranchal community:
