Passionate About:

As a sophomore student at the University of Toronto, double majoring in Neuroscience and Molecular Biology, I have the great privilege to volunteer with a group of exceptional undergraduates on a Medical Brigade to Guatemala this year. I take pride in our collective efforts to contribute to the establishment of an equitable and sustainable healthcare system for communities that would otherwise have limited access. I am reaching out to seek your generosity in supporting the funding for our brigade. Your contribution and compassion is immensely appreciated!

University of Toronto Medical Brigade May 2024 Guatemala



Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama, Ghana, Guatemala, Greece and Belize. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
