“I recently worked with a local nonprofit in Rochester, MI to launch their first annual free pediatric clinic for medicaid and uninsured children. The Director of the nonprofit and I collaborated together; I was able to contribute the knowledge I gained from the mobile medical/dental unit in rural Honduras, and apply it to my local community in Michigan.

I translated the skills and knowledge I gained from the brigade to help my local community! The clinic helped over 380 children receive medical and dental treatment, as well as school supplies and clothing.

Thank you, Global Brigades, for all your hard work, and your commitment to serve. I’m so blessed to be a part of this organization.” -Laura Collier
