Warmest Greetings!

I am pleased to announce that Busayo was selected as the recipient for the Empowerment Institute Scholarship. This was a challenging decision for Gail Straub and David Gershon, founders of the Institute, who made their decision based on recommendations from the mentors.

Please join me in congratulating Busayo on this next leg of her journey!

And don't forget! We will be selecting three correspondents to come to the States for a speaking tour, plus finding innovative and compelling ways to continue our work together.

Love,
Jennifer

I have read Gails book, "Returning to my mother's house," a million times and i know that after the empowerment programme you will be totally transformed.

I hope that you will also share your experiences with us so that we can also learn from you.

Go Busayo, go!
