MEDLIFE Chapters are dynamic, student-led groups that offer the opportunity to volunteer with an international nonprofit, build leadership skills, and create meaningful impact—both globally and locally.

By founding a MEDLIFE Chapter, you’re not just starting a group, club or society—you’re helping grow a movement committed to empowering low-income communities through medicine, education, and development. A movement that challenges traditional ideas of service and equips young people to lead change not only in communities abroad, but also in their own schools, cities, and countries. Chapters are the foundation for developing future programs that respond to injustice—wherever it exists.

At MEDLIFE, we believe in listening to communities, collaborating as equals, and creating sustainable change. Everyone deserves access to basic resources—no matter where they live.
