Hi Everyone!
After another morning of eggs and toast, we traveled to Opportunity International to hear about the work that they are participating in. They took us around the building, showing us the different departments within the bank. (Important to note here that The Penny Project has partnered with Opportunity International in the interest of micro-lending opportunities for the HIV-positive and impoverished people of Kumasi.) Then later on they led us to a Group Meeting in the suburb of Breman in Kumasi. After an interesting time learning about the ins and outs of Opportunity International, we moved onto shopping for the orphanage. We collected gallons of cooking oil and hundreds of pounds of dry goods for the children, all of which was carried on to the top of our coach by one strong necked man.
Later today, we got to travel to the Ankaase Methodist Healing Hospital. We got to meet the administration of the building and three doctors who have traveled all the way from Indiana to work in the hospital. Finally, we headed back to the Royal Basin for another dinner full of rice and fish.
All is going well here and we have much more to come!
Colin and Devin
