Pre-departure post

Hello everyone! My name is Ellie Seward and I just finished my first year at Drake University as an Anthropology/Sociology major. I am SO SO SO excited to leave for Uganda tomorrow! Along with Sarah-Rose, I will be providing reusable feminine hygiene products and general women's health/hygiene education to some primary schools and the health center. I am looking forward to meeting new people and gaining more knowledge on this new adventure!

    Hey Ellie! You were a great person to go on this trip with, as your insights were really incredible, especially since you were coming from a Anthropology/Sociology background! See you back in the states!
