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.
What a great program.
I’m all for sustainability, it’s a fantastic thing they’re doing in Cambodia!
So interesting this program…I like the “teach to fish” and “pass-on”…much better than “give the fish”
Thanks for the link Belinda….and have a great week ahead!
this sounds like an excellent program! thanks so much for sharing!
This sounds like a great program. That region has suffered tremendously over the past few decades, so I’m glad to see it get a helping hand.
What a great program!!!
What a great idea!
I was wondering what is that thing she holds,
Is water coming from beneath that thing?
Googled it. It’s a water pump right?
It looks cool but kind of hard to manage!
