The Vanderbilt chapter of GlobeMed was founded three years ago to pursue the national organization’s goal of global health equity. With 35 current members, the group works to provide health care services to a local clinic in Paracas, Peru.
GlobeMed requires each university chapter to partner with a unique organization. GlobeMed at Vanderbilt sends all of its funds to Dios es Amor, a community-based, non-governmental organization headquartered outside of Lima, Peru.
