Learn how REI builds people to build nations
We send long-term staff and short-term professionals
to train leaders in emerging countries so that they
can train others – building their nations and
bringing hope to future generations.
The work of REI is diverse in each emerging nation where we focus. Through education and medicine, business and agriculture, our highly skilled staff are training and developing others in eight locations in Asia and Africa.
As a non-profit, our organization and staff are financially supported by monthly and annual donations. Give today to be a part of building people to build nations!
REI staff and apprentices partner long-term in ten locations in Asia and Africa, and volunteers take annual short-term trips. If your professional goals for international development match ours, come with us!

I love waste. To be more specific, I love the reduction, management, utilization, and transformation of waste into something valuable. “One person’s trash is another’s treasure” rings especially true for me, as I see potential in pretty much everything. One of my favorite classes in college was Solid Waste Management, and I participated in stream clean ups throughout my college years. As I considered what to do after I graduated college, I searched for opportunities to work with waste, sustainability, and community development. . .
