Start an Alumni Brigade
Lead the movement. Expand the impact.
Lead the movement from experience!
You’ve seen the power of Global Brigades firsthand. Now, as an alum, you have the chance to keep making an impact and invite other graduates to come along with you. Alumni Brigades are designed for former Brigaders who want to continue serving communities, strengthen healthcare systems, and lead sustainable change beyond their college years with our partner communities.
Why Start a Brigade?
- Stay Connected to the Mission: Continue the journey you began as a student volunteer.
- Lead With Purpose: Organize, recruit, and inspire fellow alumni to serve partner communities abroad.
- Expand Access to Care: The funds you raise and the Brigades you lead fuel healthcare, clean water, and economic empowerment in partner communities.
- Flexible & Meaningful: Alumni Brigades fit your schedule, with 7–10 day programs designed for professionals and graduates.
Who Can Start One?
Any alumni passionate about global health initiatives! Whether you’ve just graduated or are years into your career, you can lead an Alumni Brigade with your friends, colleagues, or past fellow Brigaders. See where we're currently making impact!
How It Works?
- Connect with Us: We’ll guide you through the process every step of the way.
- Build Your Team: Promote and invite others to join your Brigade.
- Fundraise Together: Mobilize resources.
- Lead Abroad: Travel to a partner community to support long-term, sustainable programs.
