I loved your story about training in CA and it brings back so many great memories of visiting Caroline when she was there. Who would have thought that our little town would have two GCY Fellows in the past two years of the program. I look forward to following your adventure! Good luck, be safe, and have fun becoming the “New You”!

I didn’t get a chance to meet you at the Sendoff event, but I hope all is going well in Brazil thus far. I am Erica Anderson’s mom — the news from the kids in Senegal has been so positive.

Kudos once again to Abby Falik and her remarkable vision, tenacity, and abilities to implement her visions!!
