PROJECTS
HOW DOES A BTCV PROJECT HAPPEN? We connect with communities-­‐in-­‐need (anywhere in the world) through word of mouth, our website, Facebook, presentations at events, media outlets, or other strange-­‐but-­‐true ways. The community then completes a rigorous application process for BTCV support, which includes: 1. Importance of Development Aid -­‐ Describe why the educational facility is needed and how it will benefit the community. 2. Documenting Community Involvement -­‐ Provide specifics regarding how the community will be involved in the work and engaged in maintenance of the facility, support of the staff, and development of the students. 3. Ensuring Sustainability -­‐ Outline a plan for keeping the educational facility functioning for its intended purpose long term. After the application is approved by the board, we begin fundraising, build a team of volunteers, and work out all the logistics over a 6-­‐12 month period in preparation for the trip. Then we GO to BE THE CHANGE! HOW DOES BTCV FOLLOW-­‐UP ON OUR PROJECTS? As part of our long term relationship with each community, BTCV receives annual reports on each educational facility with respect to enrollment, attendance, staffing, and facilities. In addition to the statistics provided to BTCV, these reports allow us to determine what the ongoing needs are for each community and determine how they can be met. Our BTCV Kids are another important avenue of follow-­‐up as we require regular reports from them regarding their own progress in education and life, and request information on the BTCV educational facilities in their home communities. Please
consider volunteering for one of
our
upcoming projects - it will change
lives, including your own!

BTCV KIDS
Our “BTCV Kids” program helps make dreams come true for students that attend BTCV Schools around the world. This program funds educational needs for dedicated students so that they can pursue their dreams to the highest academic levels possible. BTCV Kids must maintain high attendance and passing marks in all classes, and send progress reports to BTCV each term. They must also Be The Change themselves by documenting service to others in some capacity. We have established two special scholarships for our BTCV Kids -­‐ The Patricia Crouch Family Memorial Scholarship & The Malala Yousafzai Scholarship for Girls. Please consider donating to help these students succeed!

Garry L. Albert, CPA, P.C. BTCV Changer of the Year for 2014
Glenn “OG” Willett received the first annual BTCV Changer of the Year award for building relationships and creating change through the power of education. We can think of no better representative of BTCV and this award than the one-­‐and-­‐only, loved-­‐by-­‐everyone OG! BTCV People
BTCV Giants
“If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants” This quote from Sir Isaac Newton certainly applies to BTCV! This organization has been so blessed to be able to change the lives of so many people through the power of education! Our work has only been possible through the GENEROUS and AMAZING support of so many people in so many different ways. We want to recognize and sincerely thank “our giants” who have made our success possible. THANK YOU for letting us see, and reach, further than we could ever dream! Margaret Bisognot – Mother of Dominique (BTCV co-­‐founder and director), Mary-­‐Lourdes (BTCV Cambodia), and Manny Bisogno (BTCV Cambodia and Nepal) who have all contributed so significantly to BTCV, she obviously instilled in her amazing children the passion for service and love for the poor, downtrodden, and oppressed. BTCV School 002, The Floating Learning Center in Cambodia, is dedicated to her life and memory. (tin memoriam) Grace Anderson – Mother of BTCV co-­‐founder and director Brian Anderson, raised her son to live a life of servant leadership, which he has excelled at for more than 20 years. BTCV would not be here without Brian, and so, would not be here without Grace. In addition, Grace is a core donor, supporter, and dear friend to all of us at BTCV. Jane Gordon Cook – Mother of BTCV co-­‐founder and director Jimi Cook, Jane has been a major donor and supporter of BTCV since our inception – she has given so generously to our mission and has sponsored several of our volunteers to go and serve with us. She is also our best cheerleader and encourager and keeps us all going strong with her love and support. Martin Petrus – Martin is our “man on the front lines” – this amazing man worked with us to build BTCV School 004, Brikiti Elementary School in PNG, and immediately established the first BTCV affiliate (PNG), has already started the first locally-­‐generated BTCV School (007 Kulangit Elementary), and has plans for many more BTCV schools throughout all of Papua New Guinea! Glenn & Doug Willett – BTCV volunteers extraordinaire! This Father-­‐Son team participated on BTCV Rwanda, PNG, and Nepal builds, are already signed up for Sri Lanka, and plan on many many more. Glenn (at 80+ years old) and Doug are the hardest working, most outgoing, most loved (by us, their teammates, the communities, and especially the kids) volunteers ever – they are both just beautiful people who breathe BTCV! bethechangevolunteers.org
