Help a Future Doctor Provide Care in Guatemala

Hi everyone! I am currently in my first year of medical school at the Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine (ICOM). I have already had so many great experiences, but now I have an opportunity to travel to Guatemala in the Summer of 2025 to volunteer with Global Brigades!

On this trip, we will help to provide medical care and education to as many as 720 people in underserved areas of Guatemala. We will assist in providing healthcare to our patients including dental, vision, OBGYN, laboratory testing, pharmacy, nutrition, and health education. This will also be a great opportunity to practice and improve my Spanish skills.

I have been budgeting and pinching pennies wherever I can to make sure I have the funds to go on this trip, but I would appreciate any help you may be able to provide so that I can share in this amazing experience! The funds will go towards the $1700 fee and predicting ~$800 for flights. ¡Muchísimas gracias!
