Nourish students become agents of social change
“The lessons students are learning on Nourish Projects are things it took me years of professional experience to learn.”
– Dennis Whittle, CEO of Global Giving
Nourish International equips students with the skills and experiences needed to become agents of social change. The experience of running businesses on their campus, selecting a project, partnering with a community to implement it and assessing the outcome causes students to take ownership of the world they live in.
The intense challenges students face during this process allow them to put their leadership, communication and critical thinking skills into practice. At the same time, they gain a first-hand understanding of the problems caused by global poverty and the most effective ways to solve them, giving them the foundation they need to be an informed global citizen.
In addition to having a global impact, Nourish students develop friendships with like-minded peers that inspire and support them as they pursue social change for the rest of their lives.
