Thank you for your interest in Volunteers for Medical Outreach! 

To become a general member or trip member, you must be a current student at UC Berkeley. The application will open in the beginning of each fall semester. After the application cycle closes, you will be notified if you are invited to an interview. 

The 2025 application will open in late August. 

There are three groups of members--Board Members, Trip Members, and General Members. Board Members help organize the trip, run the club, and fundraise for medical supplies for the service trip. Trip Members that go on the summer service trip to host the mobile health clinics alongside healthcare professionals. Required to pay the deposit + flight expenses and help fundraise for medical supplies throughout the year. General Members help with fundraising and can participate in various volunteering event during the school year.
