What is IMO all about?

Our Mission
 The mission of this organization is to provide a means for students to

standards in countries all over the globe.
Our Goals
 Organize safe and educational trips to other countries where the main
focuses will be assimilation into the culture as well as medicinal practice.
 Organize fundraisers throughout the year to help finance the medical
outreach trips.

varying cultures around the world.
 Provide members with experience working with medical professionals in
an unfamiliar environment.
