Drew Boshell is currently living and working on the island of Borneo, Malaysia on a large-scale community development project. He is passionate about making the world a smaller place, one in which all people have access to at least the basic necessities in life like food, water, healthcare and education. Drew imagines a day when we truly are one big family living in one small world.

My top three goals:


  • To take my children to visit imagine1day schools in Ethiopia before they are 5 years old
