Shiv Ganga Animal Helpline

Yasmine Ramachandra ’19 and Kirsten Mojziszek ’19 will spend their Winter Terms volunteering at the Shiv Ganga Animal Helpline in rural Mehsana, India. As students on the pre-health track, both Yasmine and Kirsten hope to gain hands-on medical experience in a larger cultural context. They will spend the majority of their time caring for stray and injured animals, and helping with vaccinations and other basic tasks. When Ramachandra and Mojziszek return to Oberlin, they hope to start a discussion on campus about the varying levels of medical care for animals in foreign countries.
