Union Gospel Mission Clinic

Introduction

Union Gospel Mission (UGM) is a student-run free clinic run by UTSW students serving the homeless community in Dallas, TX. We have a men’s and women’s shelter. Volunteers’ roles vary between the two clinics but are primarily focused on signing in patients, taking vitals, handing out supplies and reading glasses, and resetting rooms. In addition, volunteers may learn how to take manual blood pressures, use an EKG machine, administer vaccines, and check blood sugar.

UGM Hygiene for the Homeless Drive

Another way to serve the homeless community in DFW.
We are mainly looking for shampoo, body wash, and deodorant, which are difficult to obtain.
Hours awarded from this Hygiene Drive are capped at 6 hours per semester.
Once you have your donations, place them in a labelled bag with your name and fill out the form prior to donating so that we can verify your hours!
