Internship: "Eating Well and Learning From it: Helping Expand the Weaver’s Way Marketplace Program" in Philadelphia
"My time at WWCP has given me an incredible amount of focus and direction in regards to personal and professional interests. I have become enamored with the cooperative movement and its ability to not simply mobilize (thereby help) poorer communities, but to do so in a democratic and environmentally sustainable manner. I hope to continue learning about such economic solidarity practices as a means to provide grassroots and sustainable economic and community development."
