schoolgirls laughing at some goofy mzungu trying to take their photo on their way home for lunch (at Lwala Community Alliance)

6:30pm • boys from various families spending their time after school together. the one in the middle gave me my 'otamendi' nickname. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

5pm • my first of three family visits today. the @lwalacommunity has a huge emphasis on the health of the children so they can live past the age of 5 which is difficult in such a rural area. seeing these families with such healthy and growing children is a living example of their success. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

2pm • sat in an extremely hot and muggy home with 10 women who are volunteer community health workers. they reported to each other their findings of the week and when tea was set out they laughed often even though I didn't understand a single word for 99% of the time I was there. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

10am • a young girl gets measured by a nurse. tracking the growth of these young women is extremely vital in this rural community. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

9:00am • witnessed a mom see her child's heart beat loud and proud in a hot and crowded room (at Lwala Community Alliance)

these gorgeous ladies are being mentored on decision making • incredible to see this teacher empowering these women with the ability to say yes or no (at Lwala Community Alliance)

i think the it's become increasingly clear how much I was consumed with myself before I left for africa. now that I'm here, i get to witness first hand men and women who have almost nothing and give everything they have to help the sick and needy. it's hard not to change when you've become immersed in it. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

goodnight • more tomorrow with these gorgeous salts of the earth (at Lwala Community Alliance)

"who can tell me based on the geography which way the river is flowing" • honored to be a fly on the wall in this year 6 classroom (at Lwala Community Alliance)

honored to meet and spend time with these teachers who are empowering these kids to be the change. (at Lwala Community Alliance)

i mean. no words. (at Lwala Community Alliance)
