| The overall mission of the ISI trips is to: ISI Auction 2009 Information
Build community
Create a sense of responsibility to social
justice
Serve the medical needs of the poor.
The ISI program began at Loyola's Stritch School
of Medicine 16 years ago with three students! We continue this legacy
of service in Summer 2009.
Our teams will be traveling
to the following locations:
Haiti, Dominican Republic,
Zambia, Honduras and Guatemala.
The focus of the trips is on personal development
and serving others. We join local health care providers in administering
care in rural settings. While we learn much about international
health care, our greater goal is to learn from and serve the communities
we visit. We hope to return with experiences that will advance our
lifelong practice of medicine.
We raise funds for the trips primarily through monetary
donations and through our auction. Please consider supporting
our efforts.
