International Medical Mission Fund
SWAG视频is actively involved in providing healthcare in the Central American country of Honduras, and the Caribbean country of the Dominican Republic. In these three countries, SWAG视频has partnered with local governments and organizations such as medical schools, faith-based organizations, and other non-government organizations to establish year-round permanent clinics. In addition to providing needed medical care for the underserved, these sites give an opportunity for our students to provide compassionate and altruistic care and to learn the importance of public health initiatives.
