Belmont, NC

Passionate About:

My name is Mackenzie Avery and I’m a Biology Pre-Med major, on a journey that is fueled by a deeply personal commitment to serving those who are underserved and underrepresented. With your support driving the fundraiser associated with UNCC Global Medical Brigades, I am empowered to deliver essential healthcare to communities in need worldwide. Your contributions enable me, as a volunteer, to provide critical medical supplies, expertise, and care to those who lack access to basic services in underdeveloped communities. Your generosity empowers me and other like-minded volunteers to make a tangible impact, alleviating suffering and fostering healthier futures. Partnering with us in this vital mission will transform international medical care, building and aiding healthier communities while transforming lives.

University of North Carolina Charlotte Medical Brigade May 2025 Ghana



Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama, Ghana, Guatemala, Greece and Belize. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
