Global Leadership Institute Ghana August 2019



Emily's Message

While in Ghana, I will learn more about how Global Brigades helps the rural communities located there. I will also continue to grow the humanitarian in me by working with those communities to offer them clean drinking water, cement showers, medical and dental care, and so much more!

To do this, I need YOUR help! I am trying to raise money to travel there in August and for the communities in Ghana. All of our efforts and support can hopefully provide these communities with something that we take for granted every single day.

If you want to support financially, you can go to the link below and make a donation. Make sure to make the donation on the behalf of me, and you can also see if your employer will match your donation! Global Brigades is a 501(c) non profit organization, so you can write it off on your taxes! Every penny counts this holiday season!

You can also support me by praying for my safety while on the trip, for successful fundraising, and that these efforts will make a big impact on the people in those communities.

If you have any questions or want to send me some encouragement, you can contact me however! We can make a difference in so many people's lives! Thank you!

Volunteer Activity Description

Attending our Leadership Institute is your chance to experience a life changing opportunity abroad that will deepen your understanding of international development. Your journey won’t stop there! After getting a behind the scenes look at our programs, you will return home as an equipped leader with resources to grow the Global Brigades movement on your campus.

Global Brigades Leadership Institutes take place in each country and last for one week. Leadership Institutes are designed for passionate leaders who are interested in international development and looking to grow the Global Brigades movement on their campus. During the Institute, volunteers participate in health and economic development projects implemented by Global Brigades through our Holistic Model. Participants will network with Global Brigades staff, and go through leadership workshops that will enhance their strength as leaders and expand their ability to start Global Brigades Chapters on their campuses.

Volunteers do not pay to participate in a Leadership Institute. Instead, volunteers fundraise to support Global Brigades’ Holistic Model. Once a volunteer meets their Donation Goal, they are eligible to join us on-the-ground to see their fundraising efforts put into action by participating in a Leadership Institute.

When a volunteer participates in a Leadership Institute, the volunteer’s ground transportation, food, lodging, and emergency insurance are all covered. The funding that the volunteer raised also supports all the necessary costs for program implementation.

Airfare is not included in the standard Donation Goal. However, Global Brigades’ travel team can work with volunteers to book airfare and incorporate the airfare expense into the volunteer’s Donation Goal.

The Donation Goal for this Institute is $290 USD, not including airfare.
