The organization I worked with is Sustainable Bolivia. This program promotes community development by allowing volunteers to contribute to the development and implementation of one of the organization’s own projects, or by placing volunteers within one of their partner affiliate non-profits.
About Me
- Molly C.
- My name is Molly Clesen and I currently work as a teacher of students with visual impairments in Springfield Public Schools. I interned for 5 weeks this summer with the Manuela Gandarillas Center for the Blind in Cochabamba, Bolivia. This was an opportunity to empower and contribute to an amazing program in this local community by working with the clients to help them complete tasks independently, teaching lessons on writing, Braille, and other techniques, and participating in games and exercises to stimulate other senses. My goal has been to keep all supporters informed with up to date information about my fundraising efforts and experiences abroad. Even though I have returned, the center for the blind continues to need support. If you would like to donate to a very worthwhile cause, please click on the "Donate" button below. Thank you and any support you can provide is very appreciated. --Molly

APH
I'm very excited to report that the American Printing House for the Blind is sending a package of materials to donate to the Bolivia center for the Blind! I'm not sure what they are yet, so it'll be like Christmas in June! This will help increase the distance of the $100 that supporters have given specifically for materials. Ya-hooey! I love this field and the giving nature of the people in it :)
