Iris Ohlrogge is currently serving as an NPH volunteer in Honduras. For the first year of her service, she was a patient coordinator at One World Surgery Center and, after extending her time as a volunteer, she now works at the school as Reading Program Assistant. She is originally from Madison, Wisconsin. In 2022 she graduated from Luther College with majors in International Studies, Spanish, Global Health, and a minor in Health Promotion. She feels very passionate about universal access to healthcare and providing low-cost health services to patients who otherwise cannot afford medication, appointments, or surgery. Iris feels very fortunate to be receiving the Hightower and Kloos Legacy Fund. She will use the funds to cover flights, visa expenses, and general supplies. She is grateful to the HKLF for supporting her in this experience as a volunteer. This support will allow her to worry less about expenses as a volunteer and focus more on helping the people she is serving.
Emmy Hess is a volunteer at NPH Guatemala, serving as the Clinic Assistant. Emmy grew up in Marion, Kansas and graduated from the University of Kansas in 2022 with a double-major in Spanish and Human Biology. Currently, Emmy works in the internal clinic as a certified nurse’s assistant, but also does an array of other things: she recently started working with children with learning disabilities at the NPH Guatemala school, and she gives educational presentations on various health topics to children and their parents who are in NPH Guatemala’s community outreach program. Her goal in life is to attend medical school to become an OBGYN and serve low income and minority communities. Emmy wants to be a part of a movement that works with women in these communities as they are the most underserved.
