[afro-nets] Global Health Volunteering Abroad

Dear Friend of Unite For Sight,

We hope to have an opportunity to work with you in Unite For Sight's Global Impact Corps <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad&gt; in Ghana, Honduras, and India! Unite For Sight's Global Impact Corps volunteer abroad program is available year-round, and it's not too late to participate this winter, spring or summer! Watch a 5-minute video that features past Unite For Sight Global Impact Fellows who share their stories. <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad\#video&gt;

Unite For Sight's Global Impact Fellows are students and professionals who are interested in public health, international development, medicine, or social entrepreneurship <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad/interests&gt;\. Fellows support, assist, and learn from Unite For Sight's talented local partner doctors <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad/outreaches&gt; who have provided care to more than 2.1 million patients living in poverty during the past decade, including nearly 95,000 sight-restoring surgeries. The local doctors are social entrepreneurs who are addressing complex public health issues, and Fellows gain a comprehensive understanding about the complexities and realities of delivering quality healthcare in resource-poor settings.

Unite For Sight is the only organization in the world that:
   is a healthcare delivery organization that also offers immersive global health opportunities for students and professionals;
   directly teaches the importance of supporting and assisting local professionals in their own social ventures to eliminate disparities in their communities and countries;
   develops comprehensive training materials in cultural competency, ethics, and global health best practices to prepare its Fellows for a high-impact and immersive experience.

Complete details and the online enrollment instructions can be seen here <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad&gt;\.

Please feel free to let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to the opportunity to work with you during the upcoming months!
