About Us

Daniel founded Global Peace Network as a result of a project that took him to Tanzania. He spent 3 months working with the Rural Communities Heath Project run by Langara College. Daniels initial project in Tanzania was to build a sustainable rain water collection system along with volunteering at an orphanage. His friendliness and natural curiosity led Dan to get to know a group of street children. After talking to them he realized that education was the one thing they wanted above everything else.

Scott Poole has a long history of working with children in special needs. After completing his degree in French at the University of British Columbia, he has been working extensively with both children and youth in a variety of environments ranging from youth centres to public schools. Scott has a passion for helping the needy, and spends most of his time off traveling with his wife Nicole to places where they can volunteer.

GPN is also run by a team of dedicated volunteers who has caught Daniels passion to make a difference. Meet the team that makes GPN happen.
