Eric's Message

Hello! As you may or may not know, my plans in life are to provide medical attention to a needy population in the best way I can and as often as I can. One of the ways I have done so is through Global Medical Brigades! Last year, I traveled to Honduras with others from Philadelphia University and had a life-changing experience assisting in providing medical attention to people who need it most. This upcoming May, I will be traveling to Panama to do the same thing. Unfortunately, there is a cost of $1600 to partake in this amazing opportunity. I am asking you to help support me in whatever way you can, whether it be monetary or through prayers... all I know is that everything helps and is encouraging! If you can help out, please click the Donate icon on the right of this page! If you should have any other questions about the trip, please feel free to ask!

Side Note: When you press donate, if you wish to donate to me only- you have to make sure you mark that down.

Volunteer Activity Description

Medical Brigades at Philadelphia University is a chapter of Global Brigades, the world's largest student-led global health and sustainable development organization. The Philadelphia University chapter systematically works with more than 300 other university groups around the world to deliver and implement one of nine skill-based programs that benefit more than 130,000 Honduran and Panamanian community members annually. GMB develops sustainable health initiatives and provides relief where there is limited access to healthcare. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are treated and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
