VCU Medical Outreach trip to Cambodia, July 2019



Emma's Message

Hello friend, and thank you for clicking on my page! I am thrilled to be joining VCU's VAW Group to travel to Cambodia on our Medical Outreach Trip. For this dream of mine to become a reality, I am asking for friends and family to provide donations so that I can afford the program cost, flights, and medical expenses for this trip. Any amount that you are able to donate helps tremendously, and I am so thankful for any support you can provide. I am so excited for this opportunity to help those in need, grow as a person, learn more about medicine, experience a new culture, and continue to travel across this beautiful world we live in.

Volunteer Activity Description

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

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2018, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2019. 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 February 25- March 1.
