My First Day

I think an appropriate way to start this blog is to share with you a little about Partners Worldwide.

Partners Worldwide is a faith-based international partnership of business and professional people who want to follow Jesus Christ in eliminating poverty and transforming lives. Partners Worldwide seeks to accomplish this goal through the following four activities:

-Developing Business Partnerships

-Offering Business Mentoring and Training

-Increasing Access to Capital

-Advocating on Behalf of the Poor

Partners is currently working in 20 different countries with over 3,500 members. These members have been instrumental in creating and retaining 4,742 jobs. All of this is done with a strong conviction that business is indeed a spiritual calling.

There you have it! What a great organization, and as the title says, this is my first day here in the office. Every first day can be fun, nerve racking, and exciting, but today seems pretty quiet. I have a meeting this morning about advocacy, social justice, and hunger action. This is my dream internship!

I hope everyone is doing well. I will try to get into a routine with this blog so you can stay up to date on my work here at Partners!

Blessings!
