George Williams-Overseas Volunteer
Zambia

George has lived and worked in many parts of Africa developing supply chain programs and also developing asset based microfinance programs. George has also started a program to assist orphans and their educational requirements and to provide them with an opportunity to develop assset accumulation and management in Zambia.

George has worked in shelter and infrastructure programs for Tsunami victims in SriLanka as well as IT infrasturcture solutions in Kenya, Somalia, Philippines, Thailand and Singapore.

George's goal is to develop sustainable income generation programs that involve microfinance in rural communities working closely with established rural churches. In addition he is interested in developing technical training opportunities (Life Skills) for young people in the same rural communities to compliment the microfinance program.

More specifically George is currently putting together a proposal for setting up a mill to assist the community to husk rice in the Western province in a town called Mongu (close to the Congo border).

At the moment Devxchange is accepting donations to cover the volunteer costs of George. Once a detailed project proposal has been submitted and approved, donations will also be accepted for the projects he is involved with.
