Passionate About:

I am a Business Marketing student at the University of Utah with a passion for commerce. Between 2013-2015 I spent nearly 2 years in Argentina and interacted with many people that live in situations that are less than ideal for developing a healthy moral ethic. I desire to be able to help such people throughout the Americas by educating them and giving them an incentive to be proactive members of their community.

University of Utah Business Brigade May 2016 Panama

End Date: May 13, 2016 12:00 AM

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-day Microfinance Brigades throughout the year in Honduras and Panama. Microfinance Brigades volunteers provide financial literacy workshops and consultation to rural community banks. Throughout the brigade, volunteers divide into groups where they visit several families in their homes. During the community visits, volunteers develop an understanding of the families’ ways of life, aspirations and financial literacy. Following the visits, volunteers discuss their recommendations to the community bank on how they can improve their operations based on the information that was collected during the house visits. Additionally, students hold educational workshops with community members about the community bank focused on topics such as budgeting, savings incentives programs, and loans. At the end of week, students determine how they will allocate their Project Fund, whether it may be to an individual family or a lump sum donated to the community bank.
