Penn State GlobeMed has partnered with CURE International, Honduras to create Project Honduras. Project Honduras uniquely increases patient access to healthcare by funding patient travel expenses to and from the clinic. As many Hondurans earn less than a dollar a day, travel expenses often impede the acquisition of needed medical attention.
Our organization supports strategic understanding of global healthcare through the use of workshops, panels, guest speakers, cultural events, and service.
Penn State GlobeMed is a relatively new organization that consists of a small, close-knit community of highly motivated members. Last year, the group led a successful fundraising campaign. And this summer, five members traveled to Honduras to volunteer and interact with the community.
The organization welcomes enthusiastic new members of all majors and backgrounds!
