Greetings from Gulu!

On Tuesday, we traveled to Lapin Loyo; after very challenging roads we arrived to be greeted by over 50 WGEF clients who live in the village & work/study together at our training centre. While discussing the literacy program, I asked how it impacted their lives and made them feel; here is the one quote which will make your day and remind you of why you working with WGEF:

"Before I was blind, now I can see" Anek said she now could write her own name and she was proud. I asked her to share:

This was a powerful and moving moment, which will stay with me always...I hope you are inspired.

Peace,

Karen
