June 2011 Public Health Brigades at UC Davis

Start Date: Jun 11, 2011 11:00 PM
End Date: Jun 18, 2011 11:00 PM

Public Health Brigades empowers under resourced communities in the developing world to decrease life threatening diseases by improving home infrastructure and providing public health education. Working side-by-side with community members, PH Brigades volunteers improve the overall infrastructure within the home through the construction of four projects: eco-stoves, latrines, water storage units and concrete floors. Between brigades our in-country team provides follow-up to ensure the maintenance of the structures and work to find funding that will compliment the health goals of the community to perpetuate future construction.
