Hello, my name is Jadi Colchado and am currently in nursing school. I would like to share about an amazing opportunity and to ask for your support as I take the next steps in my pursuit of becoming a pediatrician. I plan on becoming a pediatrician, and while I know my direction could change with further exposure to other medical fields, I know that I want to work with a variety of patients and cases. I am very inspired and feel motivated to pursue something that would grant me insight into the global medical field.

Atlantis is a pre-med abroad program that connects pre-health students with doctors in hospitals across the world. It is designed to help students like me understand their place in the medical field and get first-hand experience shadowing physicians. As you may know, getting serious shadowing experience in the States is both extremely competitive and rigorously regulated. Yet, pre-med students are all but required to have shadowing experiences, along with unique extracurricular pursuits, to get accepted into medical school. An Atlantis program satisfies both needs.

I will get the opportunity to shadow international physicians, rotate weekly through various specialties, shadow for 20 hours per week, go on group excursions to experience my host country’s culture, connect with other pre-med students around the world, grow personally through this international experience, and volunteer to help tutor English to hospital staff.

I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to read this and learning about my plans. The total cost for the program is $8,000, but I am aiming to raise $9,000 to afford flights, additional food, and any extra expenses. This is where I need your help — if you are willing and able to partner with me in my medical pursuits, I would greatly appreciate a monetary contribution of any amount. No gift is too small, so whether you give $10, $25, $50, $100, or $500, I would appreciate any support. If you decide that you want to partner with me in this endeavor, my cashapp is included in the bottom of this message as well:)

I will be sharing my experience after the program to everyone who partners with me so that I can share how I learned and grew from the experience. Thank you again for considering my future medical career!

Most sincerely,

Jadi Colchado
