"I recommend new interns preparing for their journey to Ghana keep their mind open and continue to laugh at any situation. You will gain more from this experience than you could ever possibly offer to Global Mamas in return."

"I loved seeing Hannah realize that she understood the system we created for her, and listening to Eli talk about her hopes for her new catering business. The coolest thing was getting a call from Eli as I waited to board the plane when she told me about the new oven she was receiving and thanked me one last time for my help."
