South Africa Summer '18!
My Travel Story
I was offered the opportunity to work side by side with a professor from the department of my Major, Human Services and another amazing professor from our Political Science Department, along with a few other students to study and intern this Summer in South Africa. The plan is to arrange myself with a nonprofit organization once I am there to strengthen my inderstanding of how international nonprofits work. I am extremely excited to integrate myself into the Culture of South Africa for 7 weeks!
This internship opportunity will greatly benefit my education, as I will be receiving school credit while I am there, and it will provide tons of experience I hope to apply to my future in the field of Human Services.
I have been really striving these past few quarters in school because I have found a program that I am extremely passionate about, and I just could not turn down the opportunity to expand my education in this field.
South Africa is experiencing extreme wealth discrepancies, and it is in my best interest to work along side their community, offering the support I have to offer, while respecting their current systems set in place.
I will be leaving June 15th and returning August 3rd, and I am beyond excited for this experience.
Thanks for all your support,
Sydney
