California State University East Bay Medical Outreach trip to Peru, July 2020



Nancy's Message

Hello! My name is Nancy Camacho and I am currently a student at California State University, East Bay. I have the opportunity to travel to Perú this summer and immerse in a new culture while gaining clinical experience. While I am on this trip, I get to take patient's vitals, shadow physicians, and work in the pharmacy (plus so many more things)! I am so excited to travel to a new country while being able to do something that I am passionate about! As a volunteer, I do have to take into account the expenses and raise money to be able to travel, so I am sharing this message in hopes that you can help me make this trip happen! Anything helps and I will be forever grateful for your contribution. Thank you!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the California State University East Bay chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach trip to Peru 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 California State University will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Peru.

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2019, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2020. 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 March 23-27, 2020
