Getting Started

Our first blog entry, getting closer each day to our departure for the Philippines; the long planned for, long anticipated 8-month journey of solidarity with the struggle for justice and liberation in the Philippines!

Collecting supplies and donations, reading, learning, planning our itinerary, preparing our kids for a whole new life experience... each day our list of things to do grows with each task we complete. I wanted to get this blog off the ground early, post some photos of my health exposure trip in 2003, and put out a call for donations to bring with us.

The organization I will be spending most of my time with:

A publication with some great testimonials from others who have spent time working with CHD:

Now to figure out how to load up photos, files, and links. Please stay tuned for stories, experiences, and photos from me, Aiyanas and the kids.
