Eric Tran’s Testimonial:

"Thank you UTM Global Brigades for making Summer 2020 something to remember despite the circumstances! I have learned so much during the 9-day experience and I have incorporated the lessons learned into my own life’s philosophy.” ~ Eric Tran, Medical Telebrigadier August 2020

Hey UTM! We hope you had a wonderful start to classes!

Today we're going to give you a little overview of the impact UTMGB has had through the Medical Brigades program since our club was started back in 2016.

In total, we have raised $55,937 in donations, ran 4 successful brigades, and have had 55 volunteers participate. During these brigades, our volunteers collaborated with communities in Honduras to help provide consultations with medical professionals and to deliver public health workshops. They also helped out with collecting electronic patient records for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
