VAW Global at Butler will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Guatemala.

One of the most exciting and important parts of working with VAW Global is bringing medication to the local communities in Low and middle income countries. In 2019, VAW Global treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2020. 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.

**Note: airfare goal will be updated once flights are purchased.
