Support Griffin's Dental Mission in Guatemala

Donation protected
Hello!

My name is Griffin Acevedo and I am fundraising for Global Dental Brigades. I am currently in my sophomore year at Northeastern University studying Biology, with the plan of attending dental school after graduation.

I am asking for support on my upcoming trip. I have recently been selected to attend a Global Dental Brigade March 1st - 7th during spring break. Fellow students and I will be traveling to a rural community in Guatemala to provide dental care. I will be shadowing and assisting dentists, educating community members on the importance of oral health, organizing a dental records system, and completing hands-on dental care.

The Global Dental Brigades organization aims to empower rural populations which have limited access to dental care. You can find their page at https://www.globalbrigades.org/about-us/vision-mission/. You can follow my journey through the Northeastern GDB instagram page at https://www.instagram.com/nu.gdb?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==.

I could not be more honored to have this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. However each volunteer must raise at least $2350 to cover travel fees, living expenses, as well as dental supplies and oral and physical hygiene products for the community. Any amount is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your support today and every day in my journey towards achieving my goals!

Best,
Griffin
