September 2, 2001: Former Youth Facilitator of GP in batey Cuchilla, Dominican Republic, raises awareness and funds for latrine project
It is not atypical that enriching experiences also occur among GP youth facilitators and staff. They get inspired alongside our youth to also create change. This is exactly the case of Christine McReynolds who when she came back with GP a second time this summer 2011 as a youth facilitator, realized alongside her community friends in Cuchilla that latrines were an issue of urgency. She has committed to raising funds for this Latrine project. You can find out more information about this here
