Round of applause for the Peace Corps Volunteers…
In the first year of the Let Girls Learn collaboration, Peace Corps will initially target countries where it can make a real difference: Albania, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Ghana, Moldova, Mongolia, Mozambique, Thailand, Togo, and Uganda. More than 4,410 Peace Corps Volunteers (PCVs) have served in Ghana since the program was established in 1961.
Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve had the privilege of being associated with some unique PCVs. I say unique because of their discipline, determination, fortitude, courage and many more attributes. PCVs ability to leave their confront zone and live in an unusual situations takes strength of character. I’ve seen how PCVs engage with their students, be a positive influence within the villages, be a advocate for change and most of have fun. Yes, their are challenges but it doesn’t outweigh the responsibilities to continue and create change. Even though they are placed in a location for two years, many enlist again. The overall feedback I’ve receive is that PCVs wouldn’t change anything.
Michael, Andy, Sara1, Sara2, Evry, Angela, Louise and every Peace Corp Volunteer PCV’s… Great job and Thank you!
