 InterVol was founded in 1992 for the purpose of bridging local hospitals and medical professionals with other countries and care giving organizations.  We create connections for growth, efficiency, collaboration and success.

Volunteerism isn’t simply about giving in order to feel good.  We seek to create connections. 

WE envision a better, more connected world, where people, materials, opportunities, and needs are brought together for mutual benefit.

InterVol’s current programs include the Recovery of Unused Medical Supplies (RUMS), Volunteer Medical Professionals (VMP), and Friends Across Borders (FAB).

Recovery of Unused Medical Supplies - RUMS
In 2005, RUMS collected 384,985 lbs of unused supplies; 99% of which would have been discarded if not for InterVol’s recovery efforts.  Materials are sent to non-US health care facilities, clinics, and medical education programs. 

Volunteer Medical Personel - VMP
InterVol also sends teams of healthcare professionals to areas with significant medical need.  We provide medical and surgical care, as well as resources to increase the healthcare infrastructure of the areas where we work—program planning, equipment, and supplies. 

Friends Across Borders - FAB
InterVol’s newest program, Friends Across Borders, was developed in 2004 to work closely with local US schools to create learning opportunities in the International communities in which our volunteers work.  FAB’s current projects include education through technology and literacy.  All FAB’s activities are delivered through a service learning and civic involvement model.
