Passionate About:

Hi! I'm Amaan Rahman. I am from Detroit, MI and am one of the two brigade leaders for the 2020 Pitt Global Water Brigades. This upcoming brigade will be third brigade and my fifth year contributing to this organization. Having seen firsthand, on multiple occasions, the incredible difference this organization makes in establishing a SUSTAINABLE impact in communities throughout Honduras by giving them access to clean, potable water, I am deeply passionate about this organization. This year, for the first time, we will also be working to promote women's health initiatives.

I am a sophomore at Pitt right now. I am a member of the direct med program with a major in Spanish and minor in Hindi.

Please feel free to contact me at AMR258@pitt.edu or 734-837-6425!
