I am attempting to set up and up date this blog so I can keep people in the loop as to what I am doing in my Internship.

I have been accepted as a "Water for Life" Intern and will be working to help provide clean water to the rural communities of developing countries. We will be working with communities and local partners to build BioSand Filters and educate about health and hygiene practices. The hope is to provide an opportunity to help break the cycle of poverty and to increase people's chance at health and life (1.8 million people die per year from water-borne diseases and poor hygiene practices).

In 35 hours, will begin by training in various topics such as, project management, HIV/AIDS education, theories of development etc. and then i am off to wherever they send me.

Let the adventure begin!
