Excited doesn't even begin to describe how I feel right now! I received my Volunteer Placement email today! I found out where I'll be working! I'll be working with Home From Home, a wonderful organization that provides foster care to orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable children. Rather than these sweet children being institutionalized, they believe that the best place for these kids to thrive and grow is in family settings in their own communities.
Please check out their website: http://www.homefromhome.org.za/
I just cannot wait to get there and start working!! I'm so anxious to meet all of the children!!
I will be arriving in Cape Town in 9 days!
And a special little note to the lights of my life- Thank you so much for your support and understanding and your willingness to share your Mom with these wonderful kids for a few weeks. I love you both, tons.

I just realizze you are leaving today. I will be praying for you and hoping you have the great fulfillment that this kind of work gives both you and those with whom you're working.
Take care! Caron
Hey Rhonda,
I am so excited for you. Meant to call you before you left, but know that you have been busy! I am so glad that you are reaching out for such a worthwhile cause, but from past experience I know that you give your all. I only wish that I was going with you. Take care and I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
Pam
