My Story
Hello, all. I was explaining the work that I'm doing (or trying to do, I guess) at The 1010 Project to some friends back in Chicago. They were confused. "Aren't you getting a degree in Religion and Politics in the Middle East or something? How did you get involved in a humanitarian organization that works in Kenya?"
I don't really know the answer to that question. I found The 1010 Project through the University of Denver's job/internship board, sent along a resume, and then came in for a meeting. I met Mark and Adam and they were super nice. So we talked. I found myself attached to the grantwriting team, working to build up our donor base so that we can continue to do good things.
I like being a part of The 1010 Project. My thoughts and opinions count and are respected. Even though much of the work is outside my field of expertise, I am learning, and I'm glad that the office is filled with such nice people.
