Passionate About:

Sharing the love of Jesus Christ, who loved us and died for us while we were still sinners. I desire to share the message of hope and salvation to everyone; and that there is more to this life than our daily routines. Jesus came so that we can live life to the fullest, this is the message I will share in Honduras. My other hope is that everyone will have the opportunity to receive proper medical care, no matter where they were born.

About Us

Jefferson University is a chapter of Global Medical Brigades, an international movement of students and medical professionals working alongside local communities and staff to implement sustainable health systems. We work in remote, rural, and under resourced communities in Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua and Ghana who would otherwise have limited to no access to health care. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are provided access to healthcare and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends. nnIn conjunction with our Medical Program, Global Brigades also supports communities with economic development, sanitation and clean water projects, and uniquely implements these programs in a holistic model to meet a community’s health and economic goals. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the end goal of sustainably evolving to a relationship of impact monitoring.
