Passionate About:

I am a current pre-dentistry student at The University of Georgia and am excited to grow in my experiences and volunteering within the dental field. Starting at a young age, I have had the opportunity to travel and experience many other cultures. I have also discovered my passion for community service, and these together have drawn me towards this service trip. I am excited to be able to grow in all areas this coming winter!

University of Georgia Dental Internship to Guatemala, December 2022/2023



Volunteer Activity Description

Join University of Georgia on their Dental Outreach Internship to Guatemala this Winter! 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 Guatemala and teach a public health class and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

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

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 2019, VAW Global treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2022! 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.

**Note: airfare goal will be updated once flights are purchased, tentatively the week of [Sept 12 – 25, 2022]
