Interested in working with a non-profit? Planning on going into a medical field after college? Then look into the International Medical Outreach (IMO), a non-profit organization here at UCF!

 

IMO works to help those all over the world that are not able to fully help themselves and improve not only the medical surrounding of a group of individuals, but also the mental environment around those individuals as well! While most people have an extra shoulder to rely on, IMO bases themselves on providing that shoulder for those that don’t. IMO provides seminars, panels, and other forms of help for its members when it comes to progressing in the medical field, both career wise and educationally. Aspiring students can earn service hours via KnightConnect and join others in their journeys to succeed. IMO does trips to Haiti, New Orleans (NOLA), and other countries (which vary depending on conditions and season), and they plan to get back to traveling as soon as they can to aid those that need the extra help.  

​

You can get in contact with IMO through their Instagram (@imoucf) as well as their Facebook and UCF website https://www.imoucf.org. They would greatly appreciate your support if you're interested!
