Medical Mission Trip to Nicaragua / May 2020
 During its annual trip to Leon, Nicaragua, the Shenandoah University  Medical Mission Team will aid the impoverished families living in the  spectacular mountain setting of Leon and Matagalpa. Graduate students in  physician assistant studies and pharmacy serve in one of three rural clinics  run by El Ayudante, a Christian mission organization. They gain clinical  experience by providing medical care for people who would otherwise have  none. They also make friends and learn about the root causes of poverty.
