Dec 29, 2010:
Several months ago I applied to be a Coach under the CCA Africa Coaching program. After a resume and application process, I was accepted and planning began in earnest.
I will be going to the town of Rumphi in the northern region of Malawi. This is a town of some 28,000 people and as I learn more about it I will keep you posted. My partner is Brad Schultz, a credit professional from Horizon Credit Union in south-west Saskatchewan. During our two weeks in the country we will be visitng the Rumphi Community Credit Union and Rumphi Teachrs Credit Union.
My research shows a remote and very under-developed town with little infrstructure and less accommodation! Poverty is a real issue and quality of life a real problem.
