Hand-made African Quilts: Support Education!

My Dearest Supporters,

Some of you have been supporting me over the course of the past two years
through out my journey in Cameroon, West Africa. Some of you I have come to
know in this chapter of my life. I firstly want to say THANK YOU!! You all
have your own way of making a difference! But I have just another
opportunity for you, your friends and family…

Before I left Cameroon (in June!), I promised to raise funds through the
sales of 4 quilts that were hand-made by some Muslim women groups who,
through this project, are able to send their children to school. Many of
these women don’t ever leave the house in respect for their religion, and so
this is their only source of income. Another volunteer by the name of Abba
Greenleaf is the coordinator of the quilt project, and I am just the most
horrible person for not working my butt off to sell these sooner so that I
can get some funds into the hands of the women who need it very much! So I
am praying that some of you will help support! 🙂

PEACE be with you!
