Update

A very quick update for you.... We've been in a hurry around here to get some things done and pass off our knowledge to the new volunteers before we leave so this tiny blog is an excerpt from an email to my mom.

If you remember about the boy I mentioned in an earlier blog, Danny...

The past few days Sam and I have been working hard, talking to different people and getting help from Uma on trying to place Danny (the oldest boy at the daycare) into a school. His parents left him and he lives with his great aunt and she does not have any money, barely enough to even feed him or herself. (Some of the only times he eats are at the daycare) Anyway, we've been trying to get the ball rolling and we're hoping that before we leave we've either got him enrolled in school (and we'll fund the first year, planning to fundraise for the rest of his school years) or if we're lucky we can get him into a very nice orphanage which will provide him with everything and then give his aunt the opportunity to work and feed herself as well. I know that sounds crazy probably to you but we've gotten so close to Danny and getting him an education has become Sam and I's mission here.

I will of course write more later but just wanted to update everyone!
