The diary of my volunteer experience at the Amani center for children with disabilities in Morogoro. There I worked doing fundraising with the center's director, Mama Bakhita, on arts and crafts activities and child care. I also traveled to different regions and realized my childhood dream of coming to Africa.

Emmanuel's gift

I just watched the documentary Emmanuel's gift. It's about Emmanuel Osofu Yeboah, a young 30 year old man from Ghana who was abandoned by his father after birth and went on to change his nation. It is very inspiring and I highly recommend watching it. Go to http://www.emmanuelsgift.com/ to learn more about the movie.
In the documentary, a wonderful charity organization is mentioned. It's called the free wheel chair mission and provides wheelchairs all over the world. What another inspiring idea that started 27 years ago! Go to http://www.freewheelchairmission.org/ for more info.
