Northstarmom has given you great advice in looking into the Peace Corps. My brother got an International Agriculture degree at Purdue....then worked in the Peace Corps in rural Thailand...got a job with the United Nations working in rural Cambodia....returned to the U.S....got a Masters in St Paul....a doctorate at Cornell....got a job working in a development company based near D.C. While he worked out of their office for 2 years, he is now working on a project in Indonesia. He was out of the country visiting his wife's family in Thailand when the earthquake/tsunami hit. He will return Monday to Jakarta. The focus of his development work now immediately changes to working with the victims of the crisis....getting food, plastic sheeting for shelters, and generators to the people in the hardest hit province of Ache. His work with the Peace Corps started a lifetime of working to help the underprivileged sectors of our world. Maybe it will provide a base for you too.</p>
