Volunteers Around The World Global Health Alliances
What to Expect
The purpose of VAW at USC will be to help improve the standard of living for those that live in poverty stricken communities around the world by raising money in order to buy medical supplies, and by providing them with access to medical treatment, medication, and health education, while familiarizing students to real-life medical situations and the deprived state of certain populations in the world. "VAW" Medical Outreach provides volunteers with an opportunity to work first hand with experienced local doctors. Volunteers will fund raise for medications and supplies prior to the trip abroad.
