Happy Mother's Day! - Celebrating the Power & Compassion of Women
Mother’s Day is a salute and testimony to the kind of love, power and passion that women globally are capable of bringing to bear to the benefit of children, whether or not the children are their own or are simply part of their community. It takes a village to raise each new generation, and women must often – of necessity – take the lead in both nurturing and educating the young.
This Mother's Day we would like to share the inspiring example of Sue Puzo

For example, immediately after the 2010 earthquake, the Zunuzi school grounds became a “command center” for hundreds of emergency aid workers and volunteers as w[...] KEEP READING
