hey kids,

Not long to type now. Internet cafes are expensive!! I've been visiting with a volunteer named Brasil, going around and seeing the NGO she works with, aswell as the primary and highschool she works with, and the village meeting house called the upsagande (sp?) Today there was a mens' meeting about HIV and their role in prevention. I was so happy to hear this because I was just talking with some of the other volunteers about how important it is for men to gather together and talk about HIV, since almost all of the responsibility has been put on the women. They care for the sick and the orphaned and they are the ones teaching youth and trying to spread the word about HIV. I'd love to see some of the men here get proactive, because there are a lot of good men in this country. Anyway, love you all and missin you as usual!!!
XOXO
