Passionate About:

I am passionate about helping people the best way I can, each community at a time. The money raised will help me go to Honduras with GlobalBrigades. We are going Honduras because there is a lack of financial institutions and 5 in 6 people in rural Honduras do not have access to loans. Another fact is that 24.3% of the population receives less than $1 a day. I will be a microfinance volunteer, which is a person that works with businesses to give out small loans, create bank accounts, and basic financial literacy. I would be able to help a farmer double production, through the loan.

Volunteer Activity Message

Fundraise with your Global Business Brigades chapter on campus to meet the minimum $1,500 USD annual chapter contribution.

The annual chapter contribution directly supports the Community Investment Fund, which enables year-round economic development in partner communities carried out by our local teams. The Community Investment Fund is a critical component to GB’s Sustainable Transition Plan. Once a partner community has met specific health and economic development goals and brigades are no longer necessary, GB transitions projects fully to the community and offers follow-up with our local staff.

The more you fundraise, the more impact we make together!

BUSINESS Suggested donation amount: $25
On average, $25 provides a micro-loan to increase one family’s income potential.
