The Ohio State University Dental Internship to Peru, July/August 2022



Emily's Message

I am currently a Biology student at The Ohio State University. I will be traveling to Peru this summer 2022 to participate in a dental outreach internship. I am so excited to be able to help others in a culture much different from mine, as well as to gain a plethora of knowledge regarding various dental procedures! I appreciate any and all support to help me reach my donation goals to fund this trip. Thank you so much!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join OSU 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 The Ohio State University 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 April 11th-24th.
