Hello Bonners-
I am writing from a small home in Batahola, spending the night with Todd's old host family. It is across the street from a basketball court--and a cultural/education center that was started by an American nun many years ago. I feel as if we found our long-term partner for the enrichment grant/project.
Ironically, we toured this Center two days ago. They run a number of amazing progams--including a scholarship program for poor college students, who them complete community service at the Center; sound familiar? I would write more--but I don't want to be rude to my host family. If you get a chance--google Batahola Cultural Center. You may get here sooner than you think:)
Adios.
