About Us

The University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign chapter of Volunteers Around the World (VAW) consists of students that are enthusiastic and committed about addressing the health disparities that currently exists in developing countries. Through close collaboration with the organization Volunteers Around the World, our club at UIUC strives towards providing rural communities in developing countries access towards veterinary treatment, medication and nutritional and health education.

If you're interested in global veterinary medicine and want to be part of one of UIUC's most involved clubs on campus, then become a member and check out our website for more information or come to one of our info sessions!




Upcoming Initiatives

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Veterinary Internship to Peru, July 2025

 Join the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign chapter as they lead a Veterinary Outreach Internship to Peru this upcoming Summer! Interns will work in mobile clinics, where they will have the opportunity to take patient history, and 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 the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will be opening up mobile veterinary clinics for local communities as well as assisting at local animal care facilities during their time in Peru. One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2023, VAW Global treated over 17,500 patients, and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2024! One of the things that makes 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 is NOT included
