Every season here at Global Brigades we have DOZENS and DOZENS of groups come down and work with us on different projects. Be it Public Health, Medical, Microfinance, Architecture, Water, or Dental projects, all of these students make an impact in the communities. As well, these students are greatly impacted. Here we say "Students empowering communities. Communities empowering students." It truly goes both ways. In fact, I was victim of this. June 2009 I came down with Oregon State for our first Medical Brigade and I was hooked. Look at me now, working for Global Brigades in Honduras. This stuff is addictive!
Below you will see a video made by a Marquette student. Marquette has been volunteering with GB the longest. In fact, they were GB's first brigade ever. They volunteered with us this past March on a Public Health Brigade. See the video below for a great recap of their work.
