A'Nya's Message

Hey everyone I'm A'Nya! I'm a junior at UA studying Psychology on the PreMed track with a minor in Spanish. It has always been a dream to travel abroad to study medicine in a Spanish speaking country and I'm so elated to have this opportunity. This internship will allow me to immerse myself in the Spanish culture to study it and medicine at the same time while also helping those who can't afford proper medical care. Please only give what you can and I'm beyond appreciative of your contribution to my education thank you!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the University of Alabama & UTSA chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Guatemala this upcoming Summer! interns 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 Global at University of Alabama & UTSA will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Guatemala.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2023, VAW Global treated over 17,500 patients and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2024! 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.
