Girls Camp 2010!

Hey everyone! Last year if you remember the Donga region volunteers held a week long girls empowerment camp. We're doing it again this year! This week meant so much to the girls who went. Some topics we covered were self esteem building, child trafficing, sexual health, sports, arts and crafts, and of course we played lots of games and sang camp songs all week. It was a hugely rewarding time for the girls, camp tantis (Beninese women counselors) and volunteers alike. In order to fund our camp we are asking for donations from our friends and family. Please donate, it will mean the world to the girls, even if it's only a little bit, it helps.
