Leaving on Wednesday

This Wednesday, June 14th, I leave Seattle to join the Doerr's and Sydney in Kenya. First, though, I will be going to Kampala, Uganda to meet my friend Samuel. I first met Samuel 2 years ago while visiting a program at his school called Straight Talk. It is a program organized for youth to meet with their peers for support and to talk about relationships with girls (or boys), families, HIV/AIDs, etc. . Samuel and I have become good friends (mostly through the internet) and he will be taking me to meet his friends in Kampala and then out to his village to meet his family. I will also meet with Kevin Fitzcharles, CARE's Country Director in Uganda.
