Mississippi State University Medical Outreach trip to Dominican Republic, May 2019



Bentley's Message

This coming summer I will be traveling to the Dominican Republic with Volunteers Around the World on a Medical Outreach trip. We will have the opportunity to learn new medical skills and provide medical care to patients in need. We are raising money for actual trip costs along with medical supply costs. Any and all donations are beyond appreciated! Please pray for our safety in travels and in country! Thank you all for your help!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Mississippi State chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach trip to Dominican Republic this upcoming Summer! Volunteers will work in mobile medical clinics, where they will have the opportunity to intake patients, conduct public health surveys, take vitals, shadow local physicians, work in the pharmacy, teach education classes, and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW at Mississippi State University will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Dominican Republic.

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2018, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2019. 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.

**Note: airfare goal will be updated once flights are purchased, tentatively the week of [put week that your team’s tickets will be purchased, eg, Feb 4-8]
