Abstract :
Even before Dr. M. Cecilia Escarra became the executive director of the PRASAD Project, her values were closely aligned with its mission. PRASAD, a not-for-profit organization, is ?committed to improving the quality of life of economically disadvantaged people around the world,? according to its Web site. Escarra explains that the organization chooses its projects by going to communities and asking the residents how PRASAD can help them overcome their most pressing challenges.
