Grassroot Video: Who We Are, What We Do.

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog!  I have created this to allow people to follow me during my time in southern Africa and, if so inclined, support me by donating (there is a button on the right side of the page).  While Grassroot Soccer generously provides housing, I am responsible for purchasing my airfare and for covering other expenses while abroad. Please help me cover the costs to intern for this amazing non-profit by donating today!  I will keep this blog updated for my readers to see pictures and hear about my work and my experiences outside of work.   Please stay in touch with me through this blog and I appreciate anything you can offer to help me through this coming year.
