UofSC Dental Internship to Peru, June 2022



Moya's Message

Hello! This summer, I am travelling with VAW Global Health Alliances again but this time to Cusco, Peru. My trip to San Pedro La Leguna, Guatemala last year with VAW was a once in a lifetime experience that truly shaped my passion and vision for dentistry and service towards others. I am looking forward to this summer's trip and hope to share pictures soon!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join UofSC on their Dental Outreach Internship to Peru this Summer! 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 Peru and teach a public health class and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at UofSC will be opening up mobile dental clinics for local communities during their time in Peru.

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 2020. 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 March 10-23, 2022
