I am going to spend two weeks in a primary school in Springs South Africa teaching basic math and English to children ages 3-5 and helping school children ages 6-10 with their homework in the after-school program. WIth help from my church and friends we have collected arts and school supplies and soccer equipment.

I read Nelson Mandela's autobiography and was inspired by his words. I'm turning my thoughts into action and going to this country to help with education system. My wish to travel to Africa, to learn about the people, to experience their beautiful culture, to help them in a way that I can, is now a reality.
