We arrive at the school and are greeted by a chorus.
We are invited into the library to listen to skits and play learning games with the kids.
We interacted with these girls and relished our time with them. Listening to them express themselves as they tell us their goals and dreams and how to be strong young women touches our hearts. When John congratulates them with encouragement and pride in his voice and stretches his arm to them saying, "Your success is my dream come true! " There wasn't one of us who didn't have a tear in our eyes.

We have invested in Room to Read because of its mission and it is gratifying to see the results. The effect has been profound. We already want to come back to Zambia!
