In the fall of 2008, GBT was awarded a grant from IREX to develop an environmental awareness and volunteerism program for children at four different schools in villages around Baikal.  Our volunteers are currently going to a different school each weekend to lead projects with students.  The schools consist of an art school in Miget, elementary schools in Tankhoi and Bolshoe Goloustnoe, and a rehabilitation center for children with unstable families in Irkutsk.

Our winter project started on March 15.  On this project, children from area schools are helping to build trails and enjoy the lake with an environmentally conscious attitude.  This opportunity is made possible through private and corporate donations.

In March, GBT began its annual Brigadier and Interpreter training.  Please contact us if you are interested in participating.
