Passionate About:

Hello I’m Joshua Chung. I am a global and public health science major at Cornell University and am on the pre-dental track. I’m passionate about spreading the good news and helping others smile (literally)! I love working with kids and being an older brother/mentor to the next generation. Helping others live a long, healthy, and flourishing life is a priority of mine and a motive I hold onto dearly. Please consider donating to my page to help support me in providing free dental care to children and families in Guatemala! Thank You!!!

Cornell University Dental Internship to Guatemala, January 2023



Joshua's Message

Thank you for all those who donated to my trip. It means a lot to know that I have your support and prayers as my team and I go out and help put a smile on kids' faces! Without your donations, I wouldn't be able to go on this trip. Again, I can't express my gratitude enough to you all!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join Cornell University 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 Cornell University 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 September 12-25, 2022
