History

VIMM BEGINNINGS

In 1986, two young doctors received a calling from God – to personally offer healthcare services at no charge to impoverished and desperate individuals living in third-world countries.


Since their first trip, VIMM has substantially grown, completing 360 successful missions and providing medical and dental care to over half a million of our brothers and sisters.


Their faith in Christ continues to guide VIMM and its mission – serving God by serving others.

WHO WE ARE

VIMM is a team of compassionate, faith-driven physicians, nurses and other volunteers dedicated to providing spiritual and physical care to our sick and hurting brothers and sisters across the globe.


Our volunteer medical professionals and support teams provide imperative and often life-saving treatments and procedures to those who need it most – and for many, VIMM missions are their lifeline.


Whether you’re a medical professional or someone interested in exploring the world while making a difference, please join our team of volunteers, today. With your help, we are changing the world – one person at a time.

How do we make a difference?

VILLAGE HEALTH WORKERS – OUR LIFELINE

Since we cannot always physically be there, one of VIMM’s most valuable initiatives is to continue to provide medical care to the villages and barrios where we have established relationships and earned trust with natives/locals/villagers.

 

VIMM hosts Village Health Worker (VHW) programs located in Haiti and Honduras.

 

Haiti has seven VHWs who are paid monthly stipends funded through individual donor support. This team serves approximately 1,300 patients in remote villages each month. These individuals are members of the local and surrounding villages that have been instructed by VIMM affiliated doctors and nurses to sustain our mission.

 

VHWs are trained in First Care and are capable of treating a myriad of illness, including chronic and acute conditions, injuries, aches, and pains.

 

VHWs are supervised by local native doctors and refer patients when necessary.
