On Saturday, our Ugandan delegation headed out of the city to a rural area about 2 hours from Kampala. As you know, we visited Hassan's family in an urban area earlier in the week and the goal of this visit was to understand the home life of those in villages and rural areas. We were hosted by Betty, another Empower African Children scholarship student and her family. Our visit was great fun but also great work as we attempted to do the chores that are typical in African villages - including planting, digging up potatoes, fetching water and preparing lunch. We were most grateful for the help and the company of our friends from EAC. It was a humbling but fascinating experience for all!
