Kenya

In 2011, I spent four months working in Meru, Kenya for a small nonprofit, the Miriam Kanana Mubichi Foundation. I got to take on a number of responsibilities and projects and my favorite experiences were the times I spent teaching health and art classes to primary school students, researching malnutrition in a local hospital, and volunteering at a SOS Kindergarten.  While there I lived with a four year old sister, her dog Fluffy, and her grandfather.
