As a Peace Corps volunteer in Morocco in the mid-1990s, Liz Fanning was repeatedly asked by locals how they could serve their country.
“That question changed my life, but I didn’t know it at the time,” Fanning says.
Those Peace Corps experiences eventually led Fanning to start CorpsAfrica in 2011, which allows Africans to serve people in their own country.
Recruiting Africans to the program hasn’t been difficult, Fanning says. The network of volunteers grew by word of mouth, with current Peace Corps volunteers recruiting locals to serve their communities through CorpsAfrica.
