Project Trust launched me on a journey that has led to an exciting and rewarding career in international development. Teaching in a rural community in Zimbabwe in the late ’80s ignited my passion for Africa and global development. Decades later, it’s heartening to see that Project Trust continues to offer young people the chance to explore the world and discover themselves.
