University of Florida A Dental Internship to Peru, May 2025



Anna's Message

Hey family, friends, and faculty! I would be so grateful if you could support my journey to Peru by donating—even the smallest contribution will make a difference! Through Volunteers Around the World (VAW), we’re working to provide sustainable, accessible, and essential dental care to communities in underserved regions. We are fortunate to have easy access to health services, so please help us take part in the mission to reduce global healthcare inequalities and make a lasting impact. Thank you for supporting this cause and for helping me make a difference!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the University of Florida on their Dental Outreach Internship to Peru this Summer! interns will have the opportunity to learn about various dental procedures, such as cleanings, restorations, fillings, and extractions, learn about the current healthcare system in Peru and teach a public health class, and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at the University of Florida will be opening up mobile dental clinics for local communities during their time in Peru.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing full dental clinics and primary care medical clinics to the less fortunate. In 2023, VAW Global treated over 17,500 patients and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2024! One of the things that make our dental mobile clinics unique is that we are able to perform multiple procedures including fillings, restorations, cleanings and extractions at the mobile clinic. Fundraising for supplies and medications is a huge part of creating a successful mobile clinic to help the local communities with effective care.
