Are you interested in medicine and healthcare? Do you want to put a portion of your Winter Break to good use by helping the less fortunate? If so, you may be interested in UConn's Pre-Medical Society's Alternative Break, Bridge to Guanin!
Bridge to Guanin sends a student-run trip to the Dominican Republic each year to shadow in Santo Domingo hospitals, make home visits to people in need of care, and organize large-scale medical clinics in the small rural community of La Piedra, where many citizens are impoverished and lacking adequate healthcare. We also support the community's efforts to establish educational, athletic, and medicinal programs.
To meet the trip leaders, learn more, and sign up for the application to be sent to you, please visit one of our informational sessions on either Sep 4, Sep 9, or Sep 16 at 7 pm in the Homer Babbidge Class of 1947 Room.
All majors and years are encouraged to apply, all you need is a love of medicine and service! The application is live Sep 1 - Sep 22 (11:59 pm).
