Passionate About:

I am passionate about many things but most importantly, helping others. All throughout middle and high school I have spent countless hours volunteering. From that time, volunteering has become a part of me. I believe that volunteering is making an impact on even one person to create a ripple effect and make a mark on the world. As a full time student at Temple University in the College of Public Health I am getting involved to help others any way I can. This year I am excited to say that I will be going on a 7-day public health brigade to Ghana in May with Temple’s Global Brigade Club. On this Public Health Brigade, I will help to develop sustainable health solutions and establish a standard of health quality by emphasizing prevention and education. The Public Health Program achieves this goal by implementing in-home infrastructure projects, providing health education, and engaging community members. We will be working with individual families, local schools, and community leaders with a focus on holistic and preventative health measures on both an individual and community-wide scale. I will be able to make a difference in the world but cannot do it without your help! Through fundraising and donations, I hope to raise $2080 to cover the cost of my trip. Please help me to make a difference in the world and help those in need. Thank you all in advance!

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-day Water Brigades throughout the year in Honduras. 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.
