Partnering with
Welcome from Will Rogers
GMHC Exhibitors & MedicalMissions.com Organizations:
Our team knows that you want to be actively calling people into your organization's serving opportunities. In order to do that, you need a simple tool to help share your short-term trips. The problem is you don't have a simple tool to post your trips in a single place which makes you feel frustrated by not being able to better share the word. We believe you should have ample opportunity to promote your organization and your opportunities as an exhibitor of GMHC and an organization that's part of MedicalMissions.com. That's why we partnered with ServiceReef - an organization that's worked with many organizations to manage their short-term trips.
Here's how it works:
- Create an Account
- Post your Short Term Trips
- See Greater Engagement
We invite you to create your free account today and allow us to help you have even more impact as we connect this amazing audience of GMHC and MedicalMissions.com to your great opportunities.
Sincerely,
Will Rogers

Team Leader Permissions
Assign trip team leaders and give them access to specific features such as email, finances, and approvals to make managing trips easy for your organization admins.

Donor Updates
As trip members post stories about their trips, each of their donors receive automated notifications about that story connecting the donor back to the impact of their donation.
