Life Changing Adventure!

I looked into a lot of similar programs in Latin America before selecting BECA. And I can wholeheartedly say that choosing to work with BECA was the best decision I ever could have made. Organizationally, BECA is deeply committed to working in solidarity with its community partners and to ensuring that its programming is always focused on the students and communities it seeks to empower, not the volunteers. I came into the Program Administrator role several years out of undergrad and with a few years of professional experience in nonprofits under my belt. The position was the most challenging thing I ever did but also the most rewarding. Living in Honduras pushed me to lean into all my personal discomforts and pushed me professionally to hold people accountable and to make things work regardless of the resources I had at my disposal. In many ways I went to Honduras because I felt stuck with my life back in the states. I came back ready to tackle any challenge that the world had to throw at me--personally or professionally. I wouldn't be the person I am today without this experience.
