Zikomo Kwambili SS1 2011!


We'd like to give a shout out and huge thank you to all our SS1 interns and all of you who helped get them here!

Our 6 interns came from 2 countries, 4 states, 5 universities, and with wonderfully eclectic personalities and interests. They worked on developing our Effects of Deforestation curriculum section, tested out a new approach to Student Activism, deepened our January group's impact at Mchezi CBO and brought new ways to relax at the WC house with challenging card games, epic ping pong tournaments and delicious new cookie recipes. All in all, it was a great session. If you don't believe us, just check out our numbers:

-Reached 5 school communities
-Conducted 2 outreach projects
-Worked w/30 teachers
-Empowered 369 students
-Met w/4 School Management Committees
-Developed 3 curriculum sections
-Cooked 660 kg of ufa (that's a lot of nsima, even more happy bellies!)
-Consumed 48 jars of peanut butter

Way to go Bri, Jamie, Stewart, Liza Ann, Nicole, and Nick. Hope to see you again soon. Zikomo kwambili!
