I decided to make a video in order to better depict my site and apprenticeship. I currently live in Sandiara at my site, Centre de Formation et de Reinsertion Agricole de Sandiara (Agricultural Training and Reinsertion Center of Sandiara).CFRAS is an example of effective foreign aid, which is helping people better their lives to allow them to sustain themselves. In this video I show the site where I work and also visit a local market. Click the link below and enjoy!
Ever since spending a year as a Rotary Youth Exchange Student in Ecuador, Matthew has found interest in learning about other cultures and foreign languages, which he is excited to continue with GCY. He has also committed a year of full-time service to the community of the South Bronx in New York as a City Year Corps Member, where he served as a mentor to elementary school students. He recognizes the importance of addressing social injustices through public service. He enjoys volleyball, singing, and trying new foods.
