New blog place!!

People are still asking me, "Lori, what are you doing these days? Why aren't you updating your blog?" Or they're telling me, "You have to update your blog, I haven't heard anything in too long!" Maybe that last one is a little in Namlish, I've been slow to readjust to the American English of... America. Right.

So to put everyone's concerns to rest, I'm still doing stuff that I (sort of) blog about!! Places you can find me:

www.empowerwomeninafrica.com and on Facebook - search for Empower Women in Africa.

For anyone who hasn't heard, I've founded a nonprofit called Empower Women in Africa. Our three areas of focus are:

1. To sponsor girls in Namibia to stay in school;
2. To help women in rural Namibia start small businesses making and selling reusable cloth menstrual pads; and
3. To donate cloth menstrual pads (possibly only until there are women selling them locally) to conferences and schools in Namibia.

We are no accepting donations!! Visit http://empowerwomeninafrica.com/get-involved/ to learn more!!

Thanks for all your support over the last few years and even before that. It made all the difference to get me to where I am today. You're all important in keeping the momentum going!!
