I can tell you how much I'm enjoying reading our CANFAR Leaders' blogs until I'm blue in the face, but I think it's time you heard from them yourselves. These are great people with amazing things to say. So, read on, CANFAR friends. Read on.
"I met a woman who had more faith in god and belief in her own power to help others than anyone I have ever met. This woman, Emily, found out she is HIV + around 2002 and immediately decided that she was going to live positively and she begged god to give her 15 years in order for her to be able to raise the children she already had and to help others with the disease."
Check out Faith’s latest blog post to learn more about Emily and her battle with the AIDS stigma: http://www.faithgoestokenya.blogspot.com/
"Some people sleep. Some read. Some people study. Some people calm their crying baby. Some feel the need to go to the bathroom every hour! Some blatantly stare at you. Some trip and fall on their child. And some people blog (aka me)."
Step back a few days and join Kayla as she makes the journey to Kenya: http://kaylagoestokenya.wordpress.com/
"What do you say to someone when you walk into their home and see one bed for six people, no electricity, dirt floors and no bathroom? 'Your house is lovely' doesn’t exactly make the cut."
Melissa is staying true to her dedicated blogger status. Read up on her most recent post: http://mel2kenya.tumblr.com/
"Every night I hold a CANFAR session where we debrief from the day and discuss different topics. We get into great discussions about the value of the things we are doing, the things we see and the effective way of helping the programs we’ve seen."
Do you wish you were a part of those conversations as much as I do? Visit Jenna's blog to learn more: http://jennakellner.wordpress.com/
