GlobeMed sends students to their Global Health Summit with FBB support

GlobeMed, our Q4 2012 Poverty and Health beneficiary, shared this report to tell us how they are using funds donated by Foundation Beyond Belief members. FBB members donated $7,565 to GlobeMed last quarter.

GlobeMed is deeply grateful and inspired by the support from Foundation Beyond Belief. The generous donation of $7,565 from Foundation members will help us provide 37 travel grants to financially disadvantaged students to attend the 2013 GlobeMed Global Health Summit.

Each year, the GlobeMed Summit brings together hundreds of undergraduates, partner organizations, and supporters for a weekend of discussions, workshops, and lectures with thought leaders in global health and social policy. Over the course of the weekend, GlobeMed students are equipped to be more effective leaders, partners, and change-makers. Together, Summit attendees are challenged by one another to share their boldest visions for a healthier and more just world.

This year’s Summit theme, The Student Momentum, will focus on the unique position of young people as agents of change because of, and not despite, their role as students. Together, we will discover the possibilities and explore the challenges that lie ahead.

With your contribution, we are able to lower barriers so that all students may have the opportunity to engage in this transformational learning experience. Thank you for your investment in our world’s future, Foundation Beyond Belief!
