Camp GLOW is a Peace Corps Volunteer-run, week-long leadership camp for 13- to 18-year old Namibian learners. GLOW stands for "Girls and Boys Leading Our World." Originally it was just for girls, but now 40
girls and 40 boys attend the camp each year. Kevin and I both nominated some of our learners and 3 for each of us were accepted and plan to attend this April holiday! It is very exciting for them (and their proud teachers of course) because it is quite a unique experience for learners who have never been to such an event. And it
is a great opportunity for these learners to develop themselves so they can shine even brighter than they already do!
If you would like to make a donation of any amount, big or small, you can do so here. Needless to say, it is appreciated by us Peace Corps Volunteers, the learners who attend, and those whose lives the learners are empowered to make a difference in!
Kevin and I will not be there, but we hope to hear about it from the kids and from the volunteers who are running this year's Camp.
