A Nyumbani volunteer, Anna, has posted some recent experiences.

. . . .All of it made me realize that the choices I make everyday may not affect the lives of others, but that if I make a conscious effort my choices could make the world of a difference for many. Its a hard thing to attempt to analyze. It's hard when I keep telling myself "someday" yet so many need it today. It is this reason that I really would like to find a job working on human rights and African policy, as I believe in my heart that I can make a difference. I suppose the idea that I am not able to afford sponsoring building a well, flying back, etc will get me on the plane and give me motivation to work harder so that I may in time reach for a higher goal and see myself much like I see all of the other volunteers here, the ones who have been here 5, 10, 15 times. I will be back and I will make a difference.
