Bronx Medical Outreach trip to the Dominican Republic, March 2018



Alex's Message

Family and Friends!
This spring break I have the opportunity to travel to the Dominican Republic with Volunteers Around the World Bronx Chapter for a medical outreach trip with 14 other students from Fordham. We will be working in medical clinics and teaching health classes during our time there. In addition, we will be bringing down a supply of medications with us to aid the clinics that we are working in.
Please consider donating to the VAW Empower page for the trip. Any support is greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Bronx chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach trip to the Dominican Republic this upcoming spring! 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 Bronx will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in the Dominican Republic.

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2017, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2018. 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 December 21-29, 2017
