Hi everyone! My name is Andrea and I have been given an incredible opportunity to travel to Peru for a one-week internship in December of 2024. I will be traveling with the VAW Global Health Alliance Organization, where I will have the honor of helping to carry out VAW’s mission of volunteering abroad and spreading compassion by working with community health systems and local healthcare professionals. Together, we will establish and run medical clinics where we will set up intake, vitals, consultation, and pharmaceutical stations, as well as visit neighboring schools to promote quality patient care and education in global communities.

This opportunity holds a special place in my heart, as it will grant me the chance to learn more about the medical field in pursuit of my dream of a career as a physician, as well as combine my passion for community service. I humbly ask for your generosity and support in helping me afford the cost of this trip. No matter how big or small your contribution is, it will be much appreciated and will make such a large impact on my journey. I promise to reciprocate your kindness through all those lives I strive to touch during my mission.

Words cannot express how much I thank you all for your consideration and involvement in helping me chase my dreams!
