Funding is beginning to come together for my return trip to Malawi and Mozambique through contributions directly to GCC and through Crowdtilt ( https://www.tilt.com/campaigns/return-to-malawi ). A quick stop at the International Health Clinic provided the scripts for anti-malarial meds and other preventative drugs. I also had the ebola conversation and have a better idea of what to watch for. The good news is that the villages I’ll be visiting are so terribly remote, I’m the only outsider to visit. In many cases they’ve never SEEN a white man and certainly no one with white hair.

What we still need (along with continuing financial support to reach the goal of $3500) are things like clothing(men’s, women’s, children’s), cells phones, and at least one working PC laptop. I plan to pay for extra bags to transport all this to Blantyre.

There’s also a children’s center that is run on a shoestring. I’d love to take pencils, sharpeners, notebooks, etc for them.

Here’s the thing: we’re not all going. But you CAN go with me. You can help provide these things that will be a huge blessing.

I’m constantly reminded that our throwaways here are treasures there. Please…consider being a part. Donating money, things, and praying.

I’ll be blogging while I’m there…it’ll be like you’re there…minus the mosquitoes!
