This is another update from our 20th District sponsored Rotary Peace Fellow, Upendo Chitinka Jackson from Tanzania.

Over the summer, Upendo completed her Applied Field Experience in New York, winning great praise from her colleagues during her volunteer position at an artistic gallery there. She is now back at the Peace Center at the International Christian University in Tokyo and writes the following:

Dear Carol,

So good to hear from you.

Yes, I will complete my fellowship in June and graduate in July. I have good news! ICU funded my project in Tanzania and I will be going to implement it in March. I will share more by next month. So far we had our AFE presentations, completed the winter term, and I am working on my thesis.

Ark is growing and understands English, Japanese and Swahili words. He is so amazing. Please find the attached photo.

Upendo
