Global PULSE:
The PULSE Volunteer Partnership programme is an integral part of GSK's commitment to serving communities around the world by empowering employees to volunteer their professional expertise towards sustainable change.

My PULSE Assignment:
I will be spending 6 months in Nairobi, Kenya working with the African Medical and Relief Foundation AMREF to expand their Community Healthcare Worker program. CHW is a proven program applied in many parts of the developing world. A local Volunteer is given training in basic techniques to solve real world issues like Infant Mortality and Maternal Health. They then teach their fellow citizens and try to make a real change in their own society.
