Passionate About:

After taking part in domestic and international community service projects, I discovered that my calling centers around breaking barriers that result in the lack of diversity, equity, and inclusion in medical, and technical industries. By seeking ways to understand, and improve the communication in these areas, better results come about in these spaces.

North Carolina A&T State University Medical Internship to Guatemala, January 2025

Emery's Message

Hi, I am Emery Whipple! I am a current freshman at North Carolina A&T State University. I am a Public Relations Major, with a minor in Public Health. I am looking to travel, and find effective ways to mend healthcare, and people of color! This work will strengthen the trust, and relationship between medical practices, and medical patients.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the North Carolina A&T State University chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Guatemala this upcoming Winter! 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 North Carolina A&T State University 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.
