Manna Project International
Manna Project International works to create communities of young leaders that help break the cycle of poverty by focusing on people and their need to access health care, education, and an income equal to the cost of living. Manna Project International’s holistic development initiatives are built on a foundation of trust, commitment and community ownership. As a diverse and united team, Manna Project volunteers live and work within the communities they serve, learning from each other’s world perspectives, lifestyles, cultures, values, passions, strengths and experiences.
