Within the realm of health, Timmy Global Health bridges each of its university, student-led chapters with one of its established international health partners – organizations that are working year-round to expand access to healthcare for underserved communities. Each student chapter is responsible for a 52-week commitment to raising funds for their partner; procuring many over-the-counter medicines for a medical brigade; and advocating on behalf of their partner organization, Timmy Global Health, the communities we serve, and global health issues in general. Utilizing this approach, the organization is able to:
-Provide direct medical care to underserved patients in the developing world through short-term medical brigades;
-Channel financial, medical, in-kind, and human resources to our international partners;
-Empower students to lead the efforts, become more dedicated humanitarians, and develop a life-long passion for service.
