Good News!

This past Thursday we spoke (via Skype) with the volunteer coordinator for 10,000 Girls, Sam Marquart. She was able to answer our questions about our  trip including what exactly it is we'll be doing. She informed us that the Environmental Learning Center in outside Segou is in most need of volunteers to help finish building the facility and kick start other projects started by the girls. Their focus at the ELC is environmentally sustainable lifestyles and the girls are taught on topics such as: sustainable agriculture techniques, recycling, food preservation and transformation, meteorology, and environmental engineering. The video attached details more about the ELC and the girls there and their projects and goals.

Also, we have our fundraiser under full swing! We're selling little felt rosette hairclips in many different colors for $4 each! These are perfect for Fish Camp or Impact (if you're at A&M) and they're perfect for any other occasion that requires you to adorn your hair with precious decoration! There are two styles to choose from (bobby pins or an alligator clip). Buy them for yourself, your girlfriend, your sister, your friends, whoever! Shoot us an email at marsaandandigotosenegal@gmail.com to place an order. We'll work something out on delivery.


That's all for now! Please keep our fundraising efforts in your prayers. 

all our love,

m&a
