Meet Audrey Avesi, UBRP Junior. Between trying to cure cancer and fund a book drive Audry has a pretty packed schedule. Her main goal would be to target a type of breast cancer that has no known treatment. Audrey met up with sixty five other UBRP students from varying backgrounds. From gila monsters to bio-mechanical engineering, these students want to help kids in Malawi get an education! You can help by donating books at a fourth to eighth grade reading level. You can check out their website http://ubrp.arizona.edu/,  or if you have more than ten books to donate they will pick it up for you. The deadline for this project is May eighth.
