Last night, I had a chance to lay my eyes on my teammates for this trip! After this meeting, I have a feeling we will all become very close!
We will be spending most of our time in 2 villages, the Kyet kana village and the Agoro village. For these 2 villages, we will be drilling for water - this will be the first time these villages will have fresh drinking water!
We will also set up a make-shift medical clinic usually under mango trees to evaluate villagers and distribute medicine if needed.
There are several surrounding villages where we will be giving "Mercy Bags" filled with non-essentials such as soap, sugar, salt, tea, and mosquito nets...interesting that these items are considered "non-essentials" only because they have to spend money on food instead of these basic items.
We will also be teaching life skills, financial sustainability, organizational skills, playing and teaching the children, which I think is where I will be placed.
Stay tuned for more!!
Wow. I hadn't known that your application was approved until now. This is a great thing you are doing.
