2011 AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Award

The AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Award enables volunteers to do service projects in the developing world.  These Volunteer Service Awards enable impassioned young people to give of their time and talents while expanding their understanding of people and communities living in poverty.  Congratulations to the nine 2011AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Award recipients:

In the winter of 2010/2011, Robert Fredrickson participated in an Amizade program to build a library VSA_Fredericksonand computer center in Ghana. He suggested that the addition of a digital projector, screen, and accompanying laptop would enhance training opportunities and could also be used to bring income to the center during non-business hours since there are no movie theaters in the area. He returned this summer to turn his idea into reality.  For Bobby’s report, click here.

Nicole2011Nicole Kennerly
 worked with Ghana Act which runs a traveling eye clinic that visits local villages with little or no access to healthcare. On these trips, rural communities have free access to eye care, including general eye health, vision, and preventable blindness.  For Nicole’s report, click here.

has been working in Uganda since March 2011 with Global Emergency Care Collaborative, establishing and piloting a training program that lays the groundwork for an informal system of pre-hospital emergency medical services in rural communities.  For Alex’s report, click here.
