Passionate About:

Hi everyone,
My name is Isabella Ceccone, and I am currently a business management student at George Mason University on a pre-medical track. Since I was little, I have traveled primarily to Central and South America, embedding a passion for immersing myself in various cultures. Traveling has broadened my perspectives and allowed me to grow as an individual. I desire to expand my knowledge while practicing compassion in assisting others. When I was presented with an opportunity to travel with VAW to do a medical internship in Guatemala, I knew it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I had to do.

George Mason University Medical Internship to Guatemala, January 2024



Volunteer Activity Description

Join the George Mason University's chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Guatemala this upcoming winter! interns 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 Global at GMU will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities 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 2022, VAW Global treated over 12,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2023! 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.
