Amira Caitlin's Message

Volunteers Without Borders travels to underserved countries to provide healthcare and services. It opens doors and guides volunteers to help make a difference to those less fortunate while volunteering abroad. This summer I will be going to Bocas del Toro, Panama for a 2 week medical trip, but I need some help. Along with paying for the program and trip to Panama, we also need to fundraise for the medicine and other medical supplies we need to bright with us. I would appreciate any help and generosity you would be willing to donate for this trip! :) Click on the page: https://www.empowered.org/micaalmira and donate straight to this organization and our medical efforts. Thank you so much!

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Redlands chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach trip to Panama this upcoming summer! Volunteers 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 at Redlands will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Panama.

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2016, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2017. 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.


**Note: airfare goal will be updated once flights are purchased, tentatively the week of Feb. 6.
