Manna Project International (MPI) connects young professionals and recent college graduates with international service opportunities to collectively apply their passions and education through service to communities in need.
 MPI's model is a collaborative community-based approach to grassroots development, focused on three organizational pillars: holistic approach, community focus, and leadership development.

At our international sites in Guatemala, Ecuador, and Nicaragua, Program Directors (PD) live and work together for seven to thirteen monthsimplementing a range of community development projects in fields such as education, healthcare, agriculture and microfinance.

Our model is designed to create impactful, on-the-ground results, while equipping our Program Directors with the leadership development and professional skills they need to continue their work in a range of career paths after their service with MPI.  We focus on five key training areas:


   - Community Development: Be exposed to a variety of development
   approaches and dig into the complexities of theory vs practice.
   - Nonprofit Management: Learn the different facets of running a
   nonprofit with on the ground experience.
   - Cultural Studies: Experience and appreciate the cultural similarities
   and differences by both living and working internationally; learn the
   customs and the language.
   - On-site Programming: Expand your knowledge base and skill set within
   the programmatic areas for which you are most passionate.
   - Personal & Interpersonal Development: Strengthen the traits and
   abilities necessary for professional development and build the
   interpersonal strategies to effectively work in any team and environment.
