I just arrived to my location in Ghana to begin my 12 week long trip here working in an orphange. Just to update you, the organization has been incredible. Besides a very helpful orientation, Richard and Naomi have both been extremely helpful in getting me aquainted with the culture. I am having a great time and am looking forward to the rest of my time here!
Thanks for everything, Melissa Taustine
Finally back in the swing of things...
Phoebe and I had a great experience in Ghana. Since then we
have told many people about IFRE. I think a couple might have signed
up. One organization with which I am involved really supported the
trip. They sent us with donations for the orphanage and are going to
run a story about the trip in their news letter. This organization is
hosting a scholarship gala in November in DC. Will IFRE run an
advertisement in the program book? I think it will be an excellent way to
continue reaching potential volunteers. Please let me know as soon
as possible. Thank you.
