Medical Missions

Anyone who knows me, knows I am passionate about STEM, specifically advancements in medicine. There is a heart behind the research, and that heart is to help. Below you will find links to a few of my favorite medical mission groups. I admire their sacrifice, their skill, and their dedication. The work they complete each and everyday is humbling, and necessary.
