About Me

Dollars for Change
In the summer of 2006, I traveled to South Africa to teach kindergarten in the township of Kurland. I had always known I wanted to work in the field of international development, and this trip was meant to be a chance for me to get my feet wet. That October, it was reported that the US population had reached 300 million. I remember thinking what a difference it would make if every American donated just one dollar towards the fight against extreme poverty. It was that population milestone, along with years of frustration with the vast gap between extreme wealth and poverty, that Dollars For Change was born. On December 18th, 2006, Dollars For Change was incorporated as a non-profit organization and is now recognized by the IRS as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization. What began as a social experiment has become my own life’s goal.
