What we do

Four things, done repeatedly.

Run these yourself

Free Health Outreach

We run community wellness checks and pop-up clinics, bringing medical resources to the people who have the hardest time getting to them.

Medical Education

We hold workshops on preventative care, cardiovascular wellness, kidney health, diabetes, and mental health, so families can catch problems early.

Volunteer Mobilization

We train students to run health programs in their own communities, then give them the materials and the support to keep going.

Healthcare Partnerships

We work with clinics, hospitals, and medical institutions so our chapters plug into care that already exists instead of duplicating it.

$100 prints 4,000 health cards.

We are raising $10,000 to print 400,000 of them, in the languages families read at home. We are students, so almost no grant will fund us. People like you are how this happens.

Every chapter started with one person filling in a form.

One to two hours a week. We send the training, the health materials and someone to answer your questions.
