Passionate About:

I am passionate about helping others, whether through volunteering or simply being there for a friend in need. I believe everyone should have the opportunity to access quality healthcare and get the care that they need, no matter where they are in the world. I also love travelling, Formula One, reading, and learning more about medicine.

VAW Global University of South Carolina Team A Medical Internship to Mexico, May 2025



Isabella's Message

I’m going to Oaxaca, Mexico this May to volunteer in a clinic providing healthcare to communities in rural areas, and I’d love your support! Your donations will help cover medical supplies and travel expenses. No donation is too small, and every little bit helps. Thanks for being part of this journey with me!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the University of South Carolina chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Mexico this upcoming Summer! interns will work in mobile medical clinics, where they will have the opportunity to intake patients, conduct public health surveys, take vitals, shadow local physicians, work in the pharmacy, teach education classes, and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at University of South Carolina will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Mexico.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication 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 mobile clinics unique is that we not only triage and diagnose patients, but also provide them with the basic medications needed. Fundraising for medications is a huge part of creating a successful mobile clinic to help the local communities with effective care.
