Get involved with International Impact!
International Impact (a registered student organization) sends students abroad every semester. This year, we want to do things a little differently, so one project is specifically designed to research and test out a few new programs in South America. These will vary from organized volunteer programs to community organizations. International Impact would be delighted if any members of EWB are interested in participating in this venture! If you're interested or would like more information, contact internationalimpactgmail [dot] com.
