Throughout my career I was actively engaged in community economic development initiatives for women and youth in urban neighbourhoods. S.H.A.R.E.’s philosophy to support sustainable projects that provide a “hand up not a hand out” is a natural extension to this work, only in a rural setting. I have been involved with S.H.A.R.E. for many years, and travelled to Guatemala, Brazil, and Cambodia, to see the S.H.A.R.E. projects first hand, and the positive impact they have on improving the quality of life for impoverished rural families and their communities.
As a 40+ year donor I’ve supported S.H.A.R.E.'s practical and effective projects that help people help themselves.
During a monitoring trip to Brazil, I saw first-hand a project which had been funded 13 years earlier that was still benefitting from the pass-on-principle.
I was involved in the very first project that sent 38 Holstein purebred heifers and 3 bulls to Mossoro, Brazil.
Amina joins the team as a grants Officer, responsible for finding funding to support the work S.H.A.R.E. does.
Isaac is very happy to have joined S.H.A.R.E. in January 2024 as a member of the Communications Committee.
