(Image is extracted from: https://www.ivolunteer.com.ph/organization/392) Text 2 is taken from a testimonial which commented on an overseas volunteer experience. Before I entered medical school, I volunteered overseas in India for about five months. I worked in the hospitals and ambulances, assisting the doctors and patients while gaining valuable medical experience. I met patients who either touched my heart with their heart-wrenching plights or made me smile with their resilience. There is nothing more fulfilling than knowing that I have impacted their lives for the better! Seeing them getting back into the pink of health made my heart feel full. I believe you too will find this journey as rewarding as I did. Do give it a try! You will not regret it! The best volunteer abroad programme for you.
