Before leaving for Uganda, Connie Dorfman, a teacher at Crestview Elementary School (part of the Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board in Laval, Quebec), requested that her students become Pen Pals with our children at the Namuwongo Literacy Project. I eagerly accepted her offer! Her students sent personal letters, along with their personal photos. Lillian and Rona, our Ugandan teachers paired the Crestview students with a Ugandan student. All the pen Pal letter were read, after which the Namuwongo Literacy Project students wrote a reply. I photographed each of our students so that there Pen Pals in Laval, Quebec could see what they looked like. The program was a great 'hit'.
