Heather Higgins, longtime BUF member, will share some of her recent 26 months’ experiences and photos as a Peace Corps Volunteer Primary Literacy Specialist in St Vincent and the Grenadines, the West Indies. The Peace Corps is a service opportunity for motivated change makers to immerse themselves in a community abroad, working side by side with local leaders to tackle their most pressing challenges.
Heather will tell of her experiences while being integrated as the “White Lady” in a rural village of 900 people with nine fundamental, conservative Christian churches. She will highlight the joys, the challenges, the warmth and love of the community and the daily learning doing the “toughest job you will ever love!”
