It’s hard to believe that it’s been 12 years since I visited the Mehayo Center in Morogoro, Tanzania. I went there as a project for CreativeCares and worked to tell the story of disabled children in Africa from a different perspective. So often, the media subjects us to images of starving children in horrible circumstances and I wanted to see it through a different lens, literally. It was my idea that if you tell the success stories, even in hardship, people will donate based on hope rather than despair.
