Recent Initiative

Northeastern University Veterinary Internship to Guatemala, July 2022


Volunteer Activity Description
Join the Northeastern University chapter as they lead a Veterinary Outreach Internship to Guatemala 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 Northeastern University will be opening up mobile veterinary clinics for local communities as well as assisting at local animal care facilities during their time in Guatemala.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication 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 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 [March 24th]
