University of North Carolina - Greensboro Veterinary Internship to Peru, July 2023



Jessica's Message

I have always had a love for animals since I was a child. Since then, I’ve had the dream of becoming a Veterinarian. This opportunity isn't only something that is in my line career wise, but I get to also travel and help another community which is so amazing. We all should be helping one another and spreading awareness when it comes to veterinary medicine or anything that can help further communities around the world.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the University of North Carolina - Greensboro chapter as they lead a Veterinary Outreach Internship to Peru this upcoming Sunner! Interns will work in mobile clinics, where they will have the opportunity to take patient history, basic vital signs, shadow veterinarians, learn about the importance of different animals in locals lives and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at the University of North Carolina - Greensboro will be opening up mobile veterinary clinics for local communities as well as assisting at local animal care facilities during their time in Peru.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication 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 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.
