It has been a very busy month since we returned from Malawi!
We have spoken for two organizations: Zonta International and the Cavalry Episcopal churh in Stonington, CT. Both organizations welcomed us warmly and were supportive and gracious to us. We thank you both very much!
We have compiled the information and photos from our 2 pen pal projects we conducted while in Malawi and will soon share that information with the children here in the U.S. We hope to continue with such projects as they seem to be a wonderful way to build understanding and awareness of the world at large while illustrating the great smiliarities we all share!
We have many fundraising activities in the works including a cut-a-thon that will be held October 3rd in West Springfield at DiGrigoli Salon and a Jam for Malawi concert to be held at Fly Wheel in Easthampton, MA on October 16th. More details about both events can be found on the website.
We have also begun to plan and organize the Ride for Malawi to begin on September 1, 2011 when Karen will ride 500 miles through 5 New England states to raise funds and awareness about the country of Malawi. The goal is to raise $10,000 to complete the current project, a classroom block which will hold 2 classrooms.
Stay tuned for more details about all the Educate Malawi happenings!!
Thanks to all who continue to support us and help to EDUCATE MALAWI!!
