Faces of the Force
James Marcum
James Marcum had never heard of Global Care Force until a TV interview with a former volunteer dropped into his YouTube feed. He had been looking into other opportunities to volunteer in Ukraine and soon realized Global Care Force was a perfect fit for what he sought.
Faces of the Force
Guy and Marilynn Fiocco
Doctors Guy and Marilynn Fiocco will remember many things from their volunteer service in Ukraine with the mobile medical clinics. The lines of people patiently waiting to see a doctor, the very high blood pressures and obvious pain and stress of the individuals, and bullet holes in the slide of an abandoned playground. What will stay with them is the gratitude and heartfelt thanks of the Ukrainian people.

Dylan Neel, RN
is going to Ukraine
My parents instilled a powerful desire to lend a helping hand to those in need. Now, I have found myself in a position with skills to help those in need in Ukraine. I look forward to volunteering in Ukraine February 2-18, and do what I can to help the people of Ukraine get access to healthcare in areas affected by war.
Leanna Stoufer, Volunteer
is going to Ukraine
This is my dream opportunity. Since day two of the full-scale invasion, I’ve been seeking ways to be of good service in Ukraine. I’ve found many ways to be involved, but this, being part of a team providing direct, trauma-informed services to civilians in need, truly fills my heart. That’s why I will volunteer in Ukraine February 5-18, 2024.
Eileen Flynn, Volunteer
is going to Ukraine
After having worked with Ukrainian refugees at RCTV Memoria in Moldova, it was clear how many of them required not just help with housing but also medical and mental health treatments. The Mobile Medical Teams through Global Care Force allows me to be on the ground in Ukraine, where the need is the highest, helping those who cannot escape the ongoing war. So much assistance is needed, so I am volunteering in March and am excited to be part of the solution.
