Dental Services
Volunteering at a RAM clinic is not your typical 9 to 5 day at the office. It requires a commitment to hard work, but it is truly an exhilarating and rewarding experience. The days are long, the work is tiring, and yet clinic after clinic our volunteers bounce in with energy and smiles, ready to make a patient’s day better. In order to make a RAM clinic run smoothly, it takes an army of devoted volunteers with diverse backgrounds and interests to come together for one mission: to prevent pain and alleviate suffering
Vision Services
We empower, inspire, and lead communities to serve those in need. We are committed to equipping communities with strategies and resources as we work together to confront healthcare problems in their own backyard. Our mission is driven by the dedication of compassionate volunteers – they are heroes. Our clinics provide volunteers with an opportunity to contribute to community transformation. This generates a movement steered dynamic and caring people seeking to change their world.
