Passionate About:

When I was in 8th grade I read a book called Mountains Beyond Mountains, by Paul Farmer. At the time, I had no idea that the insight that the book gave me about helping others and providing medial care would lead me to where I hope to be on May 23rd: in Hondoras. Paul Framer found his passion helping people in other countries that do not have the same access to medical care that we have here in the US. I have been accepted to participate in a medical brigade to Hondoras in May. It might be a small step but I am hoping to make a little difference in someone's life by participating in this brigade. Please support my cause (:

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
