Gabriel Consunji

Passionate About:

As part of the first chapter of the Global Medical Brigade at St. John’s University in New York, we hope to take 40 students to take part in a free medical clinic to the poverty stricken people of Ghana. This will be a 10-day mission that where I will assist my fellow brigaders as well as shadow physicians, which will help prepare me for a career in medicine. In order for me to do this, I need to raise $2500 for this cause. I myself hope to be a part of these brigades as a future physician, and as such, this is a crucial first step for me in my path to medicine.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
