Licensed volunteering opportunities

While we welcome volunteers from all walks of life to participate in our work, we also require the following licensed medical professionals to volunteer for each project:

VOLUNTEER

Our selfless heroes deliver the highest quality of care to individuals who lack the proper access to medical services. Most medical volunteer programs do not require a medical degree, contrary to popular belief. This means that students, aspiring medical professionals, working physicians and retired professionals are all able to take part in our activities and gain valuable experience.

Non-Medical volunteers can provide administrative, logistic, or linguistic assistance.

Most patients seeking our services have never experienced a hospital environment and/or are undergoing frightening procedures. Your compassion for helping others in these settings will be your most important skill.
