Katherine will be holding a number of events over the next couple of months to raise much needed funds for the charity and is appealing for support and sponsorship. Any contribution to the fund no matter how small is very much appreciated.

Global Brigades Ireland was officially incorporated in 2010 after a very successful business brigade to Panama in which the student leaders worked closely with a group of chicken farmers to develop their enterprise.
Global Brigades Ireland sends Irish university students on 10 day brigades to Ghana, Panama, and Honduras, offering brigades in all nine of Global Brigades’ programmes: Architecture, business, dental, environmental, medical, microfinance, public health, and water. Global Brigades Ireland is currently expanding – setting up societies in many Irish third level institutions.
