Attention all Pre-Health student! Are you interested in spending a week in Honduras with your fellow Terrapins? Looking for a volunteer experience in medicine? Are you interested in practicing medicine *internationally? *If you are looking for something to do in the summer/want medical and public health experience/need community service, this is the PERFECT opportunity for you! We are a student run organization that travels down to Central America to provide aid to those who do not have access to basic resources. Here is a video of our brigade from last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9lQdL0zKVY& *Where:* Honduras *When:* August 19 - 25 *What you will do:* Shadow doctors, take vitals, assist with dental procedures, work in the pharmacy, teach Hondurans about healthy living. No previous experience is necessary! This is geared towards pre-health and public health majors, but anyone can come on this trip. Of course, it’s not all work. We explore the country, have a day for shopping, play with kids at the orphanage and even have a fiesta night (with a DJ!). We stay at the beautiful Rapaco Ranch. *Cost:* The program fee is $750 and includes all meals, lodging, and in-country travel. The plane ticket price depends on when we book. In total, expect to pay about $1500 (program + roundtrip plane ticket) at most. If interested please fill out this short google form and we will be in touch with you. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEJBS3UxcFI4cVVIekJHVm5LVlNhUkE6MQ Feel free to email us [log in to unmask] or post on our facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/158555207566001/ You can get more information at: http://www.globalbrigades.org/wp-content/themes/Bridge/images//Medical-2011-Web-Brochure.pdf www.globalbrigades.org
