Updated Thursday July 10, 2008 - (STUDENT REACH)
Abid Virani (Co-Chair) and Britt Martyn (Program Coordinator) are committing themselves to making a difference this summer. They will travel to Tanzania and India, respectively, to gain a better understanding of the struggle and poverty faced by our peers.

In Tanaznia, he will volunteer and teach at a local elementary school. Martyn left for her trip to India , arranged through Leaders Today, on July 3 and will be back later this month.
