Passionate About:

I am planning a career in the healthcare field because I am passionate about helping others and making a positive impact on their lives. This is one reason why I am involved in the CBU chapter of Global Medical Brigades! Fundraising is a very important part of making this dream experience possible for me, so I hope you will help me out. Every little bit counts! :)

CBU Medical Brigade Ghana August 2013



Volunteer Activity Description

Global Medical and Dental Brigades in Ghana work alongside each other on a 10-day long brigade in under-resourced communities around the central region of Ghana. Each medical and dental brigade incorporates a public health portion at the end of the 4 clinical days. The 10-day medical and public health brigade provides volunteers with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on communities while gaining hands-on experience in the field of international medicine. Prior to travel, volunteers collect medicines, recruit health professionals and fundraise. Once in Ghana, the team will visit one partner community to administer a 3-4 day-long clinic and conduct health workshops. During clinical days, community members are able to consult doctors and dentists, fill any necessary prescriptions, receive necessary dental care, and sit-in on health education lectures
