With a flair for spontaneity, pizzazz, creative excellence and her own unique sense of aesthetic grace and perspective, we have our very dear friend, Belinda (or B, to some of us). Although an incredibly accomplished professional and career woman, B’s down-to-earth approach and demeanor transcends all scenarios, communities and people. She manifests, in her day-to-day, the essence of the word “Zomppa” as demonstrated by her extraordinary commitment to creating sustainable and positive change for us and future generations to come. She’s asked for a dog every year since she was five. Check out Belinda’s work on global education research and coaching: www.hummingbirdrcc.com or more about her portfolio www.belindachiu.com.

Wonderful program!Thank you for sharing the link with us!
It seems a helpful program. Really it’d be more programs like this with all the problems that are at Africa.
What a fantastic program!
Always good to read about initiatives like this.

It’s a great program but also you are doing great job letting us know about it so we are aware of what’s available out there.
