Mwaiseni

Here is a link to a story about Mwaiseni, a community I stayed in while I was in Zambia, and Esther - a truly amazing woman, whom I was not able to meet yet was willing to open her house for me to stay. During my visit she arranged woman in the Village to care for the house, for me, and called me on the phone 5 times just to double check and make sure that I was comfortable in her home. She is a truly amazing, selfless woman, and just one of the amazing people we have the privilege to support. Thank you, Brooke, for these words!

This picture was taken in Esther's backyard, with just a handful of her students.
It is a memory that continues to have a very, very special place in my heart.
