Too much to say!

Hi everyone,

I really don't know where to start and how to make sure that this blog post doesn't take up several pages! So much has happened since I last wrote and there's so much to update you on. So... I'm going to focus just on Peru today and then I will write more soon about my amazing trip to Kenya.

As you may know, I lived in Peru for two years working for Maximo Nivel, GVN's Peru partner. I am completely in love with Peru and constantly dream of the Andes, my Cusquenan friends, Pisco Sours and Aji de Gallina. When I heard about the terrible floods that had hit the Sacred Valley region, I was in Kenya and felt terrible that I was so far away and couldn't do anything to help. But before I knew it, Caitie had set up a webpage and started fundraising. THANK YOU Caitie!

So, this message is a plea to any of you who have been to Peru, dreamed of Peru, or can trust me enough to know that the Sacred Valley is an incredible place that has suffered greatly from these floods and needs your help. Please consider making a donation now to help us purchase emergency food and blankets:
Thank you!
Eliza Raymond
Grants Coordinator
