Learn More About Traveling To Nepal With CHOICE Humanitarian And Me
I am so excited! Fresh off my Rotary trip to Ethiopia for polio immunizations, I’m now looking forward to my service expedition with CHOICE Humanitarian to Nepal in February. Here’s the news: you can join me. I hope you will!
Wade Alexander, who recently returned from Kenya himself, is the expedition leader for CHOICE. He says, “Expeditions are life-changing experiences. Expeditions allow others to broaden global perspectives and serve hand-in-hand with rural villagers.”
See my interview with CHOICE Humanitarian Founder Jim Mayfield for Forbes.
On Thursday, November 13, 2014 at 2:00 Eastern, Wade will join me for a live discussion about the trip. Tune in then to watch the discussion live.

More about CHOICE Humanitarian:
CHOICE Humanitarian works in rural communities across the globe, empowering villagers from the bottom-up to pull themselves from poverty and drive themselves down a path toward self-reliance. CHOICE relies on local leadership to implement a community-wide model of self-sustainable development that will have a positive impact on the village as a whole. At this time, CHOICE works in five distinct countries: Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, Kenya, and Nepal.
