Happy to help. We aim to give medical professionals the resources they need to safely volunteer abroad, especially in Latin America and the Caribbean. One of the major parts of this is the database, which helps professionals and students to choose a quality medical mission that adheres to best practices. Would love to hear your thoughts and ideas!
