Hey Ginger! Just checking your blog to see how things are going for you. I really enjoy reading about your interactions with friends you have made there and what their lives are like and customs are. I laughed when I read about Florence and how they tease you about getting married and the banter you give back. You are doing a great job keeping us posted daily. Life in Chulafinnee is nice. Lots of rain shower lately. Riding a lot while building at Bogan Mtn. Looking forward to next week when the family will be together over the July 4th weekend! Yay! Skye is almost home!! Brooke is missing you in Beaufort...I guess you heard...they found the ugly mirror...grrrr..and it is back in its place. You will have to hide things better next time :-D Know we are thinking of you and love you! Laurie and Frank
My partner, Meagan Brown, and I are applied medical anthropologists, which is the study of medical systems, health, and disease in different cultures. We also study how health might be improved for people in different cultures. We have been asked to do an evaluation of an HIV education program for children. The education program was developed by the Savannah Sunrise Foundation, which is a non-profit organization based out of Kampala, Uganda. This summer Meagan and I will be living in Kampala for June and July to begin the next stages of our evaluation. Our major goals for this summer are to wrap up our evaluation and set up SAS to continue to evaluate themselves successfully. We also plan to do some traveling around the country to see the different places where the program has been implemented over the past year. For sure we will be traveling to Gulu, but a couple of other places are in the works. Below I have placed a couple of links if you are interested in learning more about Uganda and the people we will be working with.
