BTCV Partner Exchange Program
The Partner Exchange Program aims to support a community partner’s visit to one of the other BTCV project sites.

There are of course additional collateral benefits:
Program participants are nominated by members of BTCV leadership. Nominations are made to the Board of Directors, who in turn select someone or refer the nomination to a selection committee. Nominees will be vetted by the Board or selection committee.
Program participants may be funded to visit sites located within their home country, home continent or elsewhere that BTCV operates. Participation in a team project is highly encouraged although there may be special site visits for certain program participants.
Program participants are expected to provide a summary of their experience, which may be published in the BTCV Newsletter and/or posted on the BTCV website.
We need your help to fund this project and make it sustainable. You currently have the opportunity to double your donation with a generous match of up to $5,000 being offered to get this program off the ground.
