Access to healthcare is a problem in America AND around the world. Timmy Global Health is an Indianapolis-based non-profit that works to expand healthcare access in developing countries like Guatemala and Nigeria. The Bloomington chapter, Timmy Global Health at Indiana University, is the original and largest collegiate chapter. IU student Nick Thornburg is the Director of Service for the local chapter. He’s done blood drives and blanket drives locally, but then also went to Ecuador for a “medical brigade” service project. Nick tells that story and how YOU can support accessible healthcare for resource-challenged people.
Activate! is a partnership between WFHB and the City of Bloomington Volunteer Network, working together to build a strong, healthy and engaged community. You can learn more about volunteer opportunities in the WFHB listening area at bloomingtonvolunteernetwork.org or by emailing [email protected].
