HWCOM Project Amazonas

This summer, 15 medical students from FIU's Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine will be joining Project Amazonas on two week-long medical mission trips to Peru on July 16-22 and July 30-August 5. 

Project Amazonas is a non-political, non sectional NGO working to serve the people of the Amazon. Since 1994, the organization provides health service and education to remote communities using a river boat stocked with medical equipment, volunteers and partnership with Peruvian health institutions. 

We will depart from Iquitos, Peru and dock at a new village each day. We will assist in managing clinics to provide healthcare to those in villages only accessible by boat. 

We need your help:

   $925   <--- cost per student
+$750   <--- airfare
$1675
x       15   <--- number of students

$25,125   (total we need to raise)
