Bio:
Drew, originally from New York, initially became interested in microfinance after a service trip to an orphanage in Comayagua, Honduras during his final year at St Michael's College. Following graduation in 2006, he began work as an accountant in a field office of the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) in Colchester, Vermont. While there, he helped resettle and serve refugees from many parts of the world. He continued to be involved with the refugee community after work by volunteering to help with tax returns and computer training. In the fall of 2007 he was transferred to USCRI's headquarters in Washington, DC where he provided support to all of USCRI's field offices. Drew is excited to continue as a Kiva Fellow after serving in KF7 and KF8.
