What is the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit?

The REAL. LIFE. Exhibit is a walk-through, multi-sensory exhibit that allows people to experience what REAL. LIFE. is like for children affected by disaster, conflict and poverty.

Visitors to the exhibit describe the experience: “Eye-opening.” “I will never be the same.” “Inspiring.” “I must do something.” “I can make a difference.”

Exhibit visitors step into places where Medical Teams International's volunteers serve with our local in-country partners to help those affected by conflict, disaster and extreme poverty. 

See the Exhibit photo gallery for select pictures of the exhibit.

REAL. LIFE. Exhibit visitors experience not only the real need but also the REAL. HOPE. that Medical Teams International provides. They see “before” and “after” scenes of places transformed by the volunteers of Medical Teams International. They visit a marketplace where they can choose how they can—and will—make a difference.

“Walking through the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit touched me more than any textbook or movie would. I took in more than expected and left with more than I could imagine. I felt that I had to do something. Everyone should experience this exhibit.” — high school student
