SQUADS ABROAD

Global Business Squads mobilize students abroad to Inspire entrepreneurism and financial literacy abroad for youth in under-resourced communities. Each Squad helps create small businesses for schools to diversify funding and teach real-world business skills to their students. Volunteers provide start-up capital, financial literacy workshops, and creating areas out of our community banks focused on child savings programs. Business Squads is a program of Global Brigades, a highly recognized international development organization that uniquely implements a Holistic Model that targets specific UN Sustainable Development goals within partner communities. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the end goal of sustainably transitioning to a relationship of impact monitoring.
