Our mission is to eradicate poverty by engaging students and empowering communities. Nourish International provides college students in the United States the opportunity to make high-impact social change in communities affected by poverty around the world. These communities receive the added value and resources of long-term sustainable solutions to problems such as food security and clean water access.Students, in turn, gain leadership skills and ownership of the world in which they live.
During the school year, undergraduate students organize as Nourish Chapters. With the yearlong support of the Nourish Office, Chapters raise money through small businesses called "Ventures" on their campus. Using the money they've earned, students select a sustainable development project to fund. Over the summer, students travel abroad to work alongside a reputable community partner and members of the community to implement these projects with specific and measurable outcomes.
