I am volunteering with The Borgen Project because I was always exposed to poverty growing up. Having parents from the Indian subcontinent, and spending time in countries such as Uzbekistan and Kenya, I was always made aware of what absolute poverty looked like and how necessary it is to combat it. It was these experiences that made me realize that developed countries not only have a moral obligation to provide foreign aid, but a responsibility to.
