Portraits of Thiaroye, Dakar...

The multi media piece on Dakar is nearly ready to go! It has been fun to vicariously travel back and forth to Senegal for the last few months as I have cobbled the piece together. I hope it can promote some more awareness and keep momentum for positive change...

Here are a few of my favorite images from my 10 days in Thiaroye, a suburb of Dakar...

Boys with stylish newspaper hats constructed at a play session with the international non profit Play For Peace.

Amazingly strong women!

Seeing kids working instead of going to school was pretty common. The non profit CAFT Senegal and others there are working to change that...

Boys begging in the streets of Dakar. Some 50,000 youth every day are forced to beg.

50% of Dakar is not literate... These women are part of new programs to change that...
