Opportunity for sharing and personal affirmation

I am a mature volunteer, and enjoyed the opportunity to live and work with an incredible group of young people, from varying backgrounds and with diverse ambitions! And that was just my fellow volunteers! The Program provided me an unforgettable experience working directly with young women, and local community on varying activities. My highlight was assisting facilitation of a six week family planning session, with an engaged and committed audience of women and men, sharing their stories and providing them with information which could literally change their lives.

Facilitating the LETS program with volunteers.
