Volunteer: Home-Based Research Assistance

It’s a big world, and when ACORN International is trying to tackle huge institutions like the banks and money transfer organizations, we need a lot of people plowing through a lot of documents, state and provincial rules in various countries, facts and figures, and processing the information country by country, including in places where we do not organize like the United Kingdom, Europe, and China. A good example of added talent in doing the great Remittance Justice Campaign reports was the labor of volunteer, Larry Ginsberg from Baltimore who waited through the state insurance and banking records vainly looking for signs of regulations in 32 of the United States. Jim Lynch working from a home computer in Little Rock managed to connect us to important information from bankers in Africa that filled in key gaps in our research.
