Hello, RPCV's!

This is Bonnie with a friendly message:)  The Episcopal School of Dallas is
looking for Returned Peace Corps Volunteers that would be willing to speak to
the students about Peace Corps and the countries they visited.  You may have
seen the information in the last newsletter.  I visited the school last week and
gave a ten minute talk during chapel, once for the middle school students, then
again for the high school students.  I always love talking about my time in
Armenia, and it was fun sharing that, plus I met some great staff members and
students.  If you are looking for a way to pursue the third goal of Peace Corps,
give the school director Mr. Campbell a call or send him an email.  He'll be
happy to set something up!

Have a great week and hope to see everyone at the International Dinner on the
17th!

Bonnie

Reach Mr. Campbell at:
J. Nathan Campbell
Director, The Center for Global Citizenship
Episcopal School of Dallas
4100 Merrell Road
Dallas, TX 75229
(214) 358-4368 Ext. 2244

The North Texas Peace Corps Association has a Happy Hour at Gloria's in Oak Lawn this Thursday at 6:30 PM.   That is still on. 
 
However, I somehow erroneously posted a reminder about my speech to Council of Catholic Women in Rockwall to the Yahoo Peace Corps Calendar instead of my personal Yahoo Calendar.  Please ignore that message.  I apologize about the incorrect announcement and any confusion it might have caused.

Subject: RPCVs' letter re: Benin Girls Camps and Memorial Fund
garyzimny
Send Email Send Email
 
All

This letter comes via Abilene RPCV Ryan Riley, a Benin RPCV.  Please respond with generosity to honor one of our own.

Dear Fellow RPCVs,

 

Our names are Megan Grann, Jordan Steiner and Carly Loehrke. We served as TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) volunteers in Benin, 2007-2009. In March 2009, Kate Puzey, a fellow TEFL volunteer, was tragically murdered in her village of service. Kate was an exemplary volunteer, a true beacon of positivity and advocate for justice. Throughout her service, she was actively involved in projects that benefited youth and women, in particular young girls. In Kate’s honor, we have started the Kate Puzey Girls’ Camp Commemorative Fund.

 

Kate was involved in the organization and implementation of several girls’ camps during her time in Benin. Girls’ camps are a popular way for volunteers in Benin, in conjunction with host country nationals, to promote the empowerment of Beninese girls. Sessions often include encouraging girls in school, health, women and children’s rights, HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention, and other issues specific to Beninese life and society. These camps give girls an opportunity to share, learn and play in a safe environment.

 

Our fund works in cooperation with SIN-DO, a Beninese NGO dedicated to promoting and protecting women and girls, to financially support girls’ camps with grants of up to approximately $200. Last year, 179 girls participated in four camps across the country. Our hope is that with this fund, more girls each year will have the opportunity to attend a camp.

 

As RPCVs, you know the challenges of empowering youth, young girls in particular. But you also know the rewards - seeing previously shy girls blossom into leaders. Your contribution to the Kate Puzey Girls’ Camp Commemorative Fund will help a new generation of Volunteers and young women to reap those rewards while honoring Kate and her dedication to service and to a brighter future.

 

Contributions can be made online through the Benin Country Fund. The process to donate follows:

1.   Go to www.peacecorps.gov

2.   Click on “Donationsâ€

3.   Click on “View all Country Fundsâ€

4.   Click on “Benin Country Fundâ€

5.   Click on “Donateâ€

6.   Please make your contribution. In the comments section it is IMPERATIVE to specify “Kate Puzey Girls’ Camp Commemorative Fund†in order for your donation to be routed to the appropriate account.

The donation process is anonymous. However, if you’d like, you can email us at katepuzeyfund@... after you’ve donated and we will send an annual report once the camps have finished.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! Thank you very much for your support.

 

Sincerely,

 

Megan Grann (Dallas, TX and NYC areas)

Jordan Steiner (San Francisco, CA and NYC areas)

Carly Loehrke (Chicago, IL area)

Something to consider...I was helping sort canned goods at the food bank on Monday, and 50% of the cans were corn or green beans.  They really seem to need protein items like peanut butter, tuna, canned meat, etc. 
 
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Hi, NT Peace Corps Return Volunteers!

I have been nominated to go to sub-Saharan Africa in July.  I have been watching
your calendar and unable to attend any events so far due to scheduling
conflicts, but hopefully I will be able to meet some of you next year.  I am a
mid-career volunteer and am particularly interested in meeting other mid-career
volunteers or people who have recently returned from Africa.

Happy Holidays!

One of my co-workers is from Ethiopia and his father recently passed away.  He
would like to honor the memory of his father by fixing a bridge that provides
access to their village.  He estimates that the cost to fix the bridge is $10k,
and he's already half way there.
Are there any RPCV's from Ethiopia that have connections in Ethiopia that can
help with the construction?  The goal is to have the bridge repairs completed by
December to mark the one-year anniversary of his passing.  Please let me know if
you can assist or if you have any questions or other ideas.
Thank you,
