Shannen O'Brian - Founder & Executive Director at Create Change Foundation
Shannen O’Brian divides her time between her Vancouver, BC hometown and Northern Ghana, where she’s helping thousands of young girls break out of the poverty cycle through Create Change. The Prevail Project caught up with Shannen to find out how she got into fundraising and community development, what it took to register her first charity at age 25, and how she was able to boost school literacy levels in rural Ghana from 15% to 82% in just two years.
