Passionate About:

I'm passionate about giving back to others what we often take forgranted in our daily lives. I am fortunate to have loving friends & family, and access to education, electricity, food, health care, shelter, & water. These are my bare essentials and things that I don't think about too much.

Realizing that there are families and children in Honduras who have access to only ~3 gallons of clean water per day, per family, has made me think more about what I take forgranted and what I can do to help. This is what has brought me to Global Water Brigades and a new passion. Now I am also passionate about spreading awareness of the scarcity of clean water in Honduras and raising funds for the less fortunate families there. During my spring break I look forward to physically contributing to this cause to implement clean water and sanitation in Honduras, and would greatly appreciate your support.

About Us

Water Brigades at Rutgers University is a chapter of Global Brigades, the world's largest student-led global health and sustainable development organization. The Rutgers chapter systematically works with more than 300 other university groups around the world to deliver and implement one of nine skill-based programs that benefit more than 130,000 Honduran and Panamanian community members annually.

Global Water Brigades is powered by groups of students and professionals dedicated to finding and implementing clean water and sanitation solutions. Each of these groups comes on a "Brigades" to Honduras to support the development of rural communities.
