My Orphans

I remember meeting them.

it was so hot, I almost did not want to.

I asked them what they like to do.

They said "We like to learn."

Twelve girls. 

One impoverished nation. 

Less than 20% literacy rate.

But they love to learn.

There is one job that

can change the world:

The job of a teacher.

Who can change the world by means of enlightenment.
