Be Typical

imagesSorry I missed my MondayUnderCover post. I had to put my laptop in for repairs again. So, today I’m catching up.

I headed overto Twitter and found this posting from Kiva about ‘typical’ women in Kenya.

I also have an email from Kenya! Kabliana (permanent link in my blog roll) with the following simple request:


I would like to ask you to write a max 30 lines script dedicated to the students of Jericho Primary School where you expose the importance of reading, of having a library where to get lost through thepages of extraordinary adventures and also, if you wish, telling a significative episode of your childhood or teeneagerhood when you discovered the beauty of reading books. We’d like to donate the library together with a special “book” of letters from writers and publishers to stimulate the students and offer them a chance to share other’s experiences.
Please who is willing to partecipate in this project can e-mail to vmmaka@yahoo.com the script.

Why? Valentina is building a library for her school in Kenya. If you visit her blog, you can see her students, read about the school and feel Valentina’s passion. I’m going to be a ‘typical’ American and send letters from my school. I’m also going to donate to Kabliana. I really believe in micro loans!
