The Problem
Medical students and professionals often have a natural desire to make a positive impact through their work in healthcare. However, once volunteers realize the cost of going, they opt out. We believe that traditional organizations underestimate the true cost of volunteering and consequently expect volunteers to bear all the expenses.
Our Cost Breakdown
The first example, detailed below, involves a journey to Africa not organized by our group. From this experience, we gained valuable insight and developed a patient care approach to implement in future mission trips. We plan to use this enhanced model on our upcoming mission trip.
Our Solution
Medspañol is the best way to save money on medical mission trips, and it's central to our company's mission. We believe volunteers should only need to give their time and be willing to take on health risks. Our mission is to support volunteers in making a global difference without having to worry financially.
