Letter to the editor: VIDA-Volunteer is a great opportunity for many students
By Amanda Suller | Feb. 27, 2014Hola Badgers! Are you Pre-Med, Pre-Dental or Pre-Vet? Are you interested in getting hands on clinical experience while also traveling and enjoying the culture of a different country? Then come to one of our VIDA-Volunteer Travel Information Sessions this week to learn more about how you can help provide free healthcare to some of the most underserved areas in Central America! You will learn more about VIDA and get one step closer to hands on, resume building, unforgettable experience! Our organization is about providing free healthcare to some of the most impoverish countries in Central America including Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Honduras, and Panama while allowing Pre-Health students to get lots of hands on clinical experience. On each trip we have a medical team, a dental team and a veterinary team. It is an amazing opportunity for students to do what they love, get hours of hands on clinical experience, provide free healthcare to countries in Central America that need it the most and also experience different cultures while traveling.
