WHAT: I'll be spending two weeks in Kurland Village, South Africa in August 2011 with Dollars for Change, a non-profit organization. I'll be helping with three projects Dollars for Change has started: DFC After School Group, The Kurland Housing Upgrade Project and the Solar Water Heater Project. Please click on the Dollars for Change link for more information about the organization and the projects referenced above.
WHY: As a teacher, I am fortunate to have time in the summer when school is not in session. It seems only right that I take that time to help others. I want to be a part of the Dollars for Change mission: making a positive and lasting impact on impoverished communities throughout the world by supporting and implementing development projects specific to the community's needs.
