Monday Meetings

Monday Meetings is BACK and this time we are introducing the new country directors for Summer 2012.

The first country to be introduced is.....BELIZE!!

Amanda Miller grew up in Reno, Nevada in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.  She studied Political Science and International Studies at Brigham Young University, Idaho.  After finishing her degree she worked for nonprofits in Washington DC and served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Southern Italy.  She is currently working on her Master of Public Administration with an emphasis in nonprofit administration at Brigham Young University.  In her free time, she loves cycling, hiking, and kayaking.

Hilary was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. This always proved to be an adventure and had a great influence on her favorite things being sitting in the sun, skiing, golf, and racquetball.  She is finishing her undergraduate degree at BYU in Socio-Cultural Anthropology with a double minor in Latin American Studies and International Development. She worked as a volunteer for HELP International this past summer in El Salvador. She realized her desire to work in the field of development after her travels to Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Mexico, and El Salvador. During this time she studied subjects such as micro-finance and social entrepreneurship which lead to a great interest in NGO accountability and evaluation.  After her work with HELP is over she hopes to further these studies by getting a Masters of Public Administration with an emphasis in International non-profit management. 



Yours Truly, HELP Headquarters
