Founder
During her time in Mayapur, she treated many ill people daily in the rural villages in Mayapur. Once realizing and witnessing the devastation first hand she sought to create a lasting healthcare system for Mayapur and the surrounding villages. During her time in India she worked with an Indian non-profit organisation Sri Mayapur Vikas Sangha (SMVS) who have been supporting and developing the villages of Mayapur for the last eight years. She worked hand in hand with this organisation to develop her project proposal for a three phase sustainable healthcare system for Mayapur. |

At the tender age of 10 she moved to South Africa with her family. It was here that she began to be exposed to the reality of the third world and her experience of cultures and customs of different countries. This continued as her family continued to move and travel around the world. At the age of 15 she developed her compassion for the impoverished as she explored Romania and Hungary in a mission project. With her vast exposure of living and travelling in countries around the globe she brings a lot of experience to her projects and is dedicated to creating change and equality to communities. Through supporting and adopting their values and customs she has integrated with the local people of Mayapur and discovered the needs of each community. She requires assistance now as she works to create lasting change through her projects. Her passion and dedication to reducing the cycle of illness and suffering through creating sustainable healthcare projects in developing communities is her attempt to rebalance the resources from the western world to the eastern world. Through the generosity of people in western countries, the people in eastern countries can be empowered with the gift of choice that will improve and develop the communities and families of each village for generations to come. |

Interview with Nicole - March 2008

Nicole Cunningham, founder of Rebalance the Globe, is enthusing and motivating people to stop the cycle of suffering in developing communities. At the age of 24 she is the pioneer and inspiration to many as she shows leadership and passion in creating lasting change in India. Her seven week excursion to India as an independent missionary has formed the basis of a new surge of compassion. Rebalance the Globe is the result of this passion and drive as she leads the crusade towards change and creating equality between the two sides of the globe.
Nicole’s core belief is that western resources need to be introduced into developing communities through well researched projects that are sustainable and complimentary to the people, culture and customs of each community. Her mission is to educate and encourage people in western countries to become passionate about creating hope and change for sick people in eastern countries. Her vision and generosity is infectious as she shares her one on one recollection of the conditions and sufferings of people in West Bengal, India.
