Translators


Volunteers do not need to know Spanish to join our trips! Every month we need translators to communicate fully with the community! Similarly to drivers, members who sign-up for trips as translators gain priority on our monthly trips.

Drivers


Despite our name "Flying Samaritans," we drive to our clinic! We are always in need of volunteers willing to drive. Drivers are provided insurance, partial reimbursed gas and partial trip fees. Also, members who sign-up as drivers gain priority and are more likely to join trips.

Officers


Our officers are experienced and dedicated members who ensure our clinic functions effectively and oversee the growth of our efforts to the community in El Hongo, Mexico.
