Projects of Hope came about after I spent 10 transformative weeks in Kenya during the summer of 2005. People were moved to help through hearing the stories I shared about my experiences in Africa. This resulted in an outpouring of great generosity from many caring people. Together we are making a difference! Read about Projects of Hope in the news.

About Shanna - The US Coordinator for Projects of Hope

I went to Africa to participate in a social work practicum abroad while contributing my gifts, talents and education to a worthwhile community project. While in Kenya, I worked at a rural medical clinical teaching HIV/AIDS prevention among a variety of other activities.  I also had the opportunity to go on home visits to meet and interview people living with HIV with the local community health worker.  Meeting these courageous women and witnessing the suffering and challenges caused by disease and poverty have provided the inspiration behind Projects of Hope.

I am available to share my experiences in community presentations, especially to local students of all ages and also to various groups interested in social justice.
