Rabat, Morocco

Developed an expatriate volunteer and donation assistance program through finding and vetting smaller Moroccan and Sub-Saharan charity organizations in the surrounding area of Rabat. Along with a translator and long-standing expatriate, each organization was evaluated to determine their legitimate needs and sources for established assistance; resulting in a list of charities supporting Sub-Saharan migrants, disabled children, sick children from poorer communities, women in impoverished and abusive situations, and orphans. Communication was done through a Facebook group and Facebook Messenger; it included volunteer opportunities and coordination, times and dates to drop off, sort through, or deliver donations, links to vetted charities, and communication of larger one-time projects. Each volunteer and charity were connected intentionally by the leaders. The impact of this group became known to Moroccan World News, who did an articles on it's behalf: https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2017/06/219043/volunteers-rabat-coordinate-social-media/
