FSD is a leading International Development organization that provides grants and key training to grassroots NGO Partners working to advance socioeconomic issues from the ground up. Vital to our work are the students who participate in FSD's hands-on Training Programs that equip them with the knowledge and tools they need to provide essential human resource support to our NGO Partners. We value our University Partners who work with us to prepare students for FSD's unparalleled development training and immersion programs around the world. We hope you enjoy reading about these partnerships and consider joining in our efforts. - Mireille Cronin Mather, Executive Director
