About
Flying Samaritans at UCLA is a student-run volunteer group that began service trips to Colonia Margarita Moran in Tijuana, Mexico, in 2012 and now travels there and to Rancho Escondido each month. Since August 2018 it has operated a four-portable clinic with a main clinic unit, a pharmacy, a dental unit and a health education classroom. Its work emphasizes preventive medicine and public health awareness alongside free care.
