JMU Global Medical Brigades Shamrock 5k

James Madison University's Global Medical Brigades hosts the Shamrock 5k with a mission to strengthen healthcare access in developing nations. This annual event supports a nonprofit organization dedicated to establishing necessary medical clinics and resources. Thanks to successful past efforts, the initiative has grown, enabling numerous volunteers to assist in countries like Honduras and Belize. Participants contribute by fundraising to support their medical missions, with funds going entirely towards fulfilling needs in Guatemala. The event at Brix & Columns Vineyard offers participants a unique scenic experience and supports a greater cause of global health improvement.
