title: Mission to Honduras.
abstract: I have volunteered for many years for a woman's organization raising money to build trade and technical schools around the world, but I had never been asked to use my education as a nurse for this purpose. When the opportunity came for me and my classmates to join a volunteer mission to Honduras we jumped at the chance. Since we were all nurses we knew how to deliver patient care. This mission gave us the opportunity to use our newly acquired nurse practitioner skills. It also gave us the opportunity to see first hand how much need there is in other countries, as well as our own, for professional volunteers to help in multicultural settings.
