“MEDLIFE is an organization that partners with low-income communities in Latin America and Africa to improve their access to medicine, education, and community development initiatives,” said Morgan Buchter, a junior majoring in biology from Cresco, Pa. Buchter is the president of MEDLIFE at ESU. “We achieve our mission through service learning trips, the MEDLIFE Project Fund, and student empowerment.” The group also volunteers in the local community. This semester they are partnering with Habitat for Humanity, AWSOM, and Lehigh Valley Health System.
