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!

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-day Water Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Ghana. Water Brigades' mission is to empower communities to access sufficient clean water through infrastructural development, water treatment, community leader training and education. Water Brigades volunteers assist in implementing clean water systems to prevent water-related illnesses in communities with limited access to clean water. One of the fundamental roadblocks to community development is lack of clean water. With a sufficient quantity of properly treated water, community members can cut off the connection between water and illness and ultimately live healthier, more productive lives. Volunteers work side-by-side with community members as well as with our in-country project technicians in all aspects of the water system's construction while learning about its design, functionality, and long-term sustainability.
