After a morning preparing materials for the MasterMinds Program and adjusting curriculum, two of the MasterMind volunteers and I visited a local community center in the afternoon. Time not used with MasterMinds gives the volunteers the opportunity to help out at the community center, aiding head teachers in English instruction. We rode motorcycle taxis through puddles on the roads of Gisenyi, past views of Nyiragongo Volcano and Lake Kivu, until we arrived at the gates to meet the director. There we discussed options for future opportunities: practicing teaching methods, gaining familiarity with Rwandan culture, and learning much from new friends that live deeply and love openly. Project Community looks forward to the arrival of four more volunteers next week and the beginning of UNGANA MasterMinds. I’m excited to be in Rwanda amidst hard-working people and imaginative minds.
Peace to all,
Ashley Linford
