From the CCWA website: “With Cleveland as a home base, COAR, Bright Start Learning, and HELP are operating non-profits in developing nations where they supplement a struggling education
system.  Join us as the heads of these non-profits lead a discussion on the political, social, and economic challenges they face and what challenges exist for a non-profit working abroad in the
education field. This is a free event.”
