Accelerating the Global Ripple
Training, mentoring, and "resourcing" social entrepreneurs around the planet... Young people leading community-based social & environmental initiatives at home and abroad. Join us and see why our work is being followed by people from 121 countries, and 6 continents.
We are in Africa until the end of August... Empowering females through young entrepreneur programs, setting-up computer labs in schools, creating student-led community development initiatives, microfinancing sustainable businesses, vetting development projects, and building lifelong friendships. And... Alyssa (CGL Fellow) is starting a female soccer league in rural Tanzanian villages - teaching female empowerment through sports.
Fun & Adventure... Changing the way our world works doesn't require somber martyrdom. Most of our training programs are based in the outdoors - we have a ridiculous amount of fun & adventure while changing the way the world works - and building life-long friendships everywhere we go.
*Currently funding business start-up and capacity building loans in Tanzania, Rwanda, Paraguay, Peru, and the United States.
