This club aims to inform students on Laurier's Waterloo campus about the many opportunities in health care around the world while learning about different health-related issues faced by nations around the globe. HBB allows hawks to explore beyond what is familiar in Canada through facilitating educational seminars and volunteer opportunities abroad to gain exposure beyond the classroom (e.g. Me to We, Save a Child's Heart, Gap Medics). Anyone interesting in giving back to the global health community is welcome to join our initiatives which will include sending first aid kits abroad as well as fundraising for relief efforts in international communities. Open your mind to the global medical community and learn about health through others' eyes!
