DGLP would like to apologize to any members of the Dartmouth community who we
may have offended with our previous blitz ad. We are a small organization that
is continually learning, and as so, we sincerely appreciate the feedback we have
received. We have since taken steps to address many of the concerns that were
brought to our attention, and we hope to communicate our goal and purpose more
accurately in the future. Thank you again for your feedback and understanding.

The Dartmouth Global Leadership Program is a student-run program that sends Dartmouth
students on spring break projects to Vermont, Texas, and Honduras. DGLP selects
a group of students from different academic backgrounds to work directly with
our community partners-under resourced high schools in low-income areas with whom
we've been working for the past three years. Each year, we continue to build our
relationship with these communities by gaining an understanding of their needs
and then working together with the community to develop a plan of action.
The goal of the Spring Break Project to Honduras, La Fuerza para el Futuro, is
to guide and support the leadership development of a cadre of teens from eight
rural villages. The entire project team will be onsite in Honduras during the
March interim break, working with the teens to develop locally identified skills
needed to become regional leaders. This year, we hope to focus on developing specialized
skills so that these teens can become the backbone of support for the library
and regional education center. Established village leaders will be involved in
every step of deciding how to run the library and center. Our goal is to help
make the center compelling to the teens, encourage them to become involved, and
help them establish a region-wide web of leaders they can rely on.
