The Tours Goes to Stanford!

On November 3, I was able to attend one of many stops on Vance Walstra's bike outreach tour and help with a tabling event. I was really excited about this particular opportunity because 1. it was at Stanford 2. all of the students were attending because they were interested in volunteering, interning or studying abroad. It was our perfect audience! 3. I've spent a lot of hours convincing people at at Universities along the West Coast to host Vance and it was wonderful to get the chance to participate.
I've already received an email from an interested student who is seeking a long tern volunteer position when she graduates this year.
Most colleges and universities offer fairs of this nature and it would be wonderful if various former volunteers living near these institutions could represent Omprakash and encourage students to get on board the Omprakash train!
