All over the country of Namibia there are bright potential leaders
waiting for the opportunity to grow to their full capabilities. The
Gender Awareness in Namibia (GAIN) committee of Peace Corps
Volunteers is ready to give them that opportunity with “Girls and
Guys Leading Our World (GLOW).”
Camp GLOW is a week-long leadership development camp offered to
eighty students, ages 13 to 16, from throughout the country. These
learners will come together in the capital city in May 2005 to learn
about gender awareness, promote self-confidence, explore future
career choices, fight the AIDS epidemic, and develop leadership
skills. Most of the campers will never have another chance to
experience the other cultures within their own country, visit the
capital city and historic landmarks of their nation, or interact
with successful Namibian professionals on a one-on-one basis. This
is the opportunity of a lifetime for them!

The cost of the camp
for each student is US$ 50.00. We are asking for your help in
sponsoring these children to attend Camp GLOW. For US$ 50, a child
will gain a lifetime of experience and growth. If you do decide to
sponsor a student, the child will send you a picture and a letter
from camp telling you all about his/her experiences throughout the
week.

Please send your
money (cash or check) to Courtney Bauman, through her family, at 201
West Main, Tishomingo, OK 73460. The money will be deposited into
the Camp GLOW account upon receipt. With the money, please send
your name and address so that we can send you a picture and letter
in the mail. If you would like a receipt for your donation, please
let us know and we will send that with the letter. (Remember, the
camp does not take place until May of next year, 2005, so you will
not receive your letters until after that time.)
Thank you for your continued support and
contributions! We look forward to hearing from you!
