Ghana, West Africa, 2007
Catherine and Peter Bishop tell us about their son and daughter-in-law, and their experiences down in Ghana with the Shanga Water Project:
Nov 11: Ghana, West Africa, 2007
In September 2005, several members of the Humanist Community accepted the challenge of helping a tiny village in northern Ghana to obtain a supply of clean water. In July 2007, Catherine and Peter Bishop visited Shanga Village as well as many other parts of Ghana. They will report on the results of the Shanga Village water project, and they will discuss other challenges and opportunities to help people in northern Ghana as they strive to improve their lives. They will also share photos from their amazing adventure in Ghana.
