Medic to Medic helps address the critical shortage of health workers in developing countries. Students from poor backgrounds struggle with the costs of university and are often forced to spend spare time trying to find funding rather than focusing on their studies. Students from these backgrounds are more likely to drop out of their training due to poverty yet they are also more likely to stay and work in their home countries once qualified.

Medic to Medic supports students at risk of dropping out of their training by guaranteeing payment of tuition fees until graduation, providing twice yearly allowances, medical equipment, books and a laptop so they have everything they need to reach their full potential and successfully qualify as a health worker. The alumni provide mentorship support to students ensuring scholarships are holistic. Since 2007 we have helped over 130 health workers qualify.
