About the Volunteer Outreach Clinic...

The Volunteer Outreach Clinic (VOC) is an assembly of medical doctors and LAU pharmacy students and faculty who provide free diagnosis, medications and counseling to the underprivileged population of the Sabra and Chatila refugee camps.

Since October 6, 2001, every Saturday between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m, the volunteers take time away from their families and personal activities to serve the noble cause of "it is better to give than to receive."

Many thanks to all the participants and let us hope this movement will spread to other needy communities.
