Lewie Pierce is a long-term friend and a board member of Global Volunteers. Since 2001, Lewie has gone on 18 Global Volunteers service programs and continuously provided financial support to communities around the world. Over the years, thanks to Lewie, two dental clinics were established; one in Tanzania and one in Ghana.
Recently, Lewie and his wife Joyce decided to begin a scholarship program for health-care students in the United States who would like to participate in a service program, but have no financial means to do so. This program was launched at the beginning of 2009 and so far, 15 students were awarded this scholarship. With the Bonafield-Pierce Scholarship Program, Lewie and Joyce found a way to have an impact on our own communities as well as those around the globe.
