On Sunday, I am traveling to India as part of The College of Wooster's 2011 Global Social Entrepreneurship team. We will be working with two NGOs in Bangalore- one which helps underprivileged children build life skills and another that helps disabled adults find employment. The 2011 team includes myself, three peers, and a Wooster prof who will serve as our adviser. I will be working from May 26-July 8 and afterward I will travel for 2.5 weeks around India. I hope you enjoy my writings and reflections as I embark on this experience.
