About Us

The University of Texas at San Antonio chapter of VAW Global Health Alliances (VAW Global) consists of students who are enthusiastic and committed to addressing the health disparities that currently exist in developing countries. Through close collaboration with the organization VAW Global, our club at the University of Texas at San Antonio strives towards providing rural communities in developing countries access towards dental treatment, medication, and nutritional and health education.

If you're interested in global dentistry and want to be part of one of the University of Texas at San Antonio’s most involved clubs on campus, then become a member and check out our website for more information, or come to one of our info sessions!

In 2023, VAW Global treated over 17,500 patients and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2024! 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 is NOT included
