If you are one of the roughly half of all Brigada participants who live in the USA (and maybe some other places too?), here’s a way you can make a positive difference it he lives of people from Saudi Arabia without ever leaving your state. You see, Saudi Arabia is now #2 behind China in # of international students studying in the USA. So if you live in the USA, the vast majority of you will live within an hour of a university with 25+ Saudis. If you need help getting started, just write
info@lovesaudis.com to find out who, nearby, has outreach to Saudi students. (Thanks Brian!)
