Thursday, September 24 at 1:00 p.m. ET — Please join us for a webinar focused on WASH and education with guest speaker Peta Hall.

Peta is an entrepreneurial artist who is passionate about the arts, education, women’s empowerment, and Africa. Originally from Zimbabwe, she came to Canada in 1974. In recent years, Peta has dedicated much of her time, effort, and heart to the people and country of Ghana. She was instrumental in the creation of the Atorkor Vocational Training Institute where students are taught skills in textiles, computer science, and business management. Peta also founded a cooperative to support women’s economic independence through Textile Art Ghana, and established a program in local schools to give girls information and supplies for menstrual hygiene. We look forward to hearing her stories. Click here to register.
