Global Dental Brigades

Members Benefits

The primary membership benefit of this club is the potential opportunity to travel abroad as part of a global dental initiative to assist in oral healthcare for those in need. We intend to host fundraising events to help us raise money to travel abroad; these events can range from selling goods/food to hosting movie nights, and anything that would allow us to garner the interest of our fellow students to raise money. Additionally, we hope to offer volunteering opportunities during the year in Cleveland so our members can gain experience before traveling abroad. This could be in or out of the dental field as experiences with both dental skills as well as with people are valuable. Communications for this will include social media posts, emails, and GroupMe messages. We seek to offer pre-dental students an extremely unique opportunity to further their interest in dental medicine while in college while also partaking in social services. Given that Medical Brigades and Dental Brigades offer separate chapters nation wide, we hope to offer this diversity at Case Western and give pre dental students a unique opportunity to partake in dental activism in a manner that is not offered at CWRU.
