Opportunity to Support a Playground for Kids

If you're looking for a worthy cause to donate to, I know Jen Murphy, a fellow Peace Corps Volunteer is raising funds to build a school playground in her village.

Kids don't have a whole lot to do here, play grounds and P.E. programs don't exist. So anything to keep them busy and let kids be kids helps them cope with the the harsh realities they face in their daily lives such as, loss of parents from HIV/AIDS, being targets for sex predators etc. Teenage pregnancy is a big issue in Botswana and kids as young as 11 drop out of school due to pregnancy. Playgrounds don't just serve as a healthy outlet, but also a haven for children to reside in during the day when they don't feel safe at home. Any little bit helps.
