Overview
The Need
Our Work
Today, IMR is building on that foundation by continuing to serve these communities with compassion, dignity, and purpose. Through the Global Citizens Academy and Colorado volunteer experiences, participants become part of this ongoing story of care. Volunteers help advocate for patients, support community outreach efforts, and contribute to the delivery of health education and essential services that can improve and save lives.
This work also extends beyond Colorado. Participants help bridge local service with IMR’s international mission by assisting with the preparation and packing of medical supplies and equipment used in global deployments. These materials support doctors, nurses, and local healthcare teams providing sustainable education, diagnosis, treatment, triage, laboratory services, pharmacy support, and specialty care in underserved communities around the world.

Arrivals
Plan to arrive in Denver, Colorado Sunday evening and settle in for the night. IMR’s travel partner Worldwide Navigators can assist all volunteers coming from out-of-state with accommodation that matches your price point, from hotels to homestays.
Orientation and CPR/Basic First Aid Training
Eat breakfast at your leisure. You and your team will meet at 8am for orientation. Your team leader will go through your orientation program which includes roles for the day’s operations and IMR’s protocols, in addition to an overview of the location and/or community you and your team will be serving today. Your days may be different as there are a variety of needs in Colorado’s underserved communities, including community health education, basic health overviews, health screenings, body mechanics, consultation and referrals, Q&A sessions, and other support.
In the afternoon, you will have the opportunity to get certified training in CPR and Basic First Aid by our certified master trainers or teach if you are a master trainer yourself. Go home with an extra skillset that will serve you when you least expect it.
In the evening you will have a debrief from your team leader and review goals for the next day. Enjoy the many offerings that the City of Denver has to offer in downtown from our 16th Street Mall, Lodo, The Highlands, or if you have more energy, take in Elitches or a baseball game!
