Empowering Ghanaian Communities

My sister, the illustrious speculative fiction writer Therese Arkenberg, will be traveling to Ghana next month as part of an Economic Development service learning project. She and her classmates are seeking to raise funds for the community-led nonprofit group Capacity Rural International; this group distributes microloans to  Ghanaian women for the purchase of yield-increasing seeds and to Ghanaian students pursuing careers as carpenters and seamstresses. 

Please help Therese reach her funding goal by donating through the program's IndieGoGo campaign or through PayPal! Therese has made a short story available on her blog as an added incentive to donate.
