“Hope and health project is dedicated to collaborate and connect with groups and organizations that help others in need in any part of the world. We are very concerned with the lack of medical, dental care, access to education, hygienic living conditions and safe shelter for residents in underdeveloped countries. This is why we exist, to assist medical and dental students, licensed physicians and or dentists in providing health and dental care in those areas targeted by hope & health project. By assisting other professionals and groups to provide educational, economic, and enviromental assistance we will improve the living and health conditions of those residents in rural, underdeveloped areas.”

“Each year we travel to the dominican republic for a medical mission trip bringing suitcases packed with medications and basic hygienic supplies including anti-parasitic medications, vitamins, toothbrushes, toothpaste, pain and fever madications and other basic remedies. These may be easily available to us in the u.s but are not always available in those remote communities. We support and assist the travel needs of the medical students who join and support the trip as well as working with the local organizations that help these communities year round. We strive to combine the provision of otherwise unavailable expertise with education to both the needy community to improve their ability to handle the issues year round as well as to the medical student community to instill a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment that we hope will result in a lifetime of giving.”
