Where we Work
MEDLIFE has seven main sites where we currently work – our homes. The sites are rich in culture, heritage, and natural beauty, but each also has a poverty-stricken population in need. Through our volunteer work in Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Tanzania, we hope to educate students about the issues of poverty that are common among all sites, as well as the issues that are unique to each specific site. In order to do so, we make sure to develop a deep understanding of the local culture, the population, and the problems they face.

250 million people in Latin America are suffering from a non-communicabkle disease, such as cancer, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease.
In 2002, there were over 288,000 deaths from cervical cancer worldwide. Approzimately 80% of these deaths occured in developing countries.
Global life expectancy at birth in 2015 was 60 years in the WHO African Region and 76.8 years in the WHO European Region, giving a ratio of 1.3 between the two regions.
There are approximately 50 million orphaned children in Africa, most of them HIV-positive.
274 million people in Latin America and the Caribbean do not have health insurance.
88% of diarrheal deaths worldwide are the result of unsafe water, and inadequate sanitation and hygiene.
More than 10 million people in Africa live on less than $1 per day, the so-called food poverty line below which people are unable to purchase enough food for an adequate diet.
Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for 11 percent of the world’s population, yet bears 24 percent of the global disease burden and commands less than one percent of global health expenditure.
