Amizade is a global service-learning organization based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Since its inception in 1994, over 10,000 volunteers have participated in numerous community-development projects throughout the world. As a mean to keep volunteers and community members engaged, and to capture the enthusiasm and ideas post volunteering, Amizade is initiating “The Global Social Action Accelerator,” to enable the design and implementation of community-driven micro-projects. Though workshops, mentoring, and start-up funding, this program seeks to create new social entrepreneurs and catalyze innovative development projects in many parts of the world. The AllPeopleBeHappy foundation awarded a $10,000 Project Grant for this new initiative.
