National Peace Corps Association Brainstorming about that Peace Corps "thing"... that "thing" that happens when you meet a fellow PCV/RPCV. What do you think "it" is? What do *you* think is the tie that binds the Peace Corps community across decades, regions served, programs, etc. etc.?

Tech4Ghana recently opened its first computer Technology Center in Wli, to an outpouring of community interest and thanks. Now school groups are coming there for classes in Information and Communication Technology. Visit us online at Tech4Ghana.org to view photos of the opening weeks and learn more about our mission an...d work in Ghana. Also, read about Tech4Ghana's Wli/Afegame Rainforest Conservancy project to replant the rainforest, promote conservation through education and advocacy to prevent further forest destruction, and model sustainable agricultural practices in a forest environment. We are hoping to attract a Peace Corps volunteer to help us in our efforts in Wli, to stay in the volunteer house that we have built on the Tech4Ghana campus. Does anybody have a contact to whom we can propose this PC volunteer opportunity?Read More
