Purdue University Veterinary Internship to Peru, May 2024



Madison's Message

I have been given the opportunity to do an internship in Peru for the Summer of 2024. This internship will allow me to work in mobile clinics, learn about local wildlife and different types of animals. I will also have the opportunity to shadow veterinarians and work with the people who live in these communities. I will have the chance to learn about their culture, as well as give them the proper and effective care, that is needed. I am asking for donations, that will allow me to make this mission possible.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Purdue University chapter as they lead a Veterinary Outreach Internship to Peru this upcoming Summer! 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 Purdue University 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 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 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.
