The Road Back to Ghana: Day 1

The Road Back to Ghana Day 1: After an 11 hour flight from JFK - our first Crayons Matter Backpack Delivery Team made it safely to Accra, Ghana: Brad, Martin Agbemabiese, MD, and myself! I could hardly contain my excitement (and a few tears) as we landed. What a dream come true! We were greeted by several of Martin's amazing friends and family members - including his sister and brother. The mission of Crayons Matter would not be possible without this generous group of individuals.

We will transport 400 plus backpacks to our first sponsor school tomorrow and then follow with a delivery of 400 backpacks to our second sponsor school on Friday. We are super excited and cannot wait to share the details of our service experience in the villages outside of Accra.

Thank you for your kind comments, thoughts, and prayers as we embark on this amazing service journey...you will be present as each child opens their very own backpack tomorrow. I am so grateful and honored to return to this inspiring country and have the opportunity to deliver joy and love in the form of crayons!! Stay tuned for our next update...
