Support Jenna's 2025 Medical Mission to the Philippines

Hey Everyone,

My name is Jenna and I am a paramedic in San Diego. I’m also a volunteer for Venture to Heal Medical Missions. This year I will be returning to the Philippines for another medical mission with Venture to Heal, an amazing 501(c)(3) charity that began its roots with one of our local RN's beautiful vision of helping those underserved internationally.

It’s been almost 10 years since Venture to Heal began its first medical mission in 2016 to Vietnam, which I was lucky to be a part of. This year I get to return to the Philippines and volunteer for this amazing organization. This will be a very meaningful trip for me as I get to bring my cousin (who has also entered the medical field) along, and it will be my first trip to the Philippines since my Grandma’s passing.

The missions run off donations with volunteers coming from all over the US comprised of other paramedics/EMTs, nurses, doctors, NPs/PAs, medical assistants, and other medical and non-medical professionals. Monetary donations will be going to pay for supplies, medications, and vitamins that will be given out to patients that we see throughout our clinic days. We will be setting up medical clinics in the communities of Nueva Ecija and Cebu in the Philippines. In 4 clinic days, we hope to see 300-400 patients like years past.

Any monetary contributions are appreciated, or if you would like to donate supplies directly, the supplies listed below are the supplies we are in most need of.
