Bpeace in Afghanistan (Again)

The team disbursed today to their various projects.

Toni and Laila happily delivered a purchase order for 30 hand-knit baby hats from Sons & Daughters, a children's boutique in New York City. Suria's mentors Ellen Lubin-Sherman and Laura Bradford sent along instructions, yarn, and a cash deposit from Sons & Daughters. Suria committed to the June 1 deadline and felt confident that more orders would follow once she successfully delivered. Then, with a discussion guide provided by Ellen and Laura, Toni had a brand-development session with Suria so that Ellen and Laura can develop a logo and clothing tags for Suria's business.

Toni left Suria in Paula's good hands to meet up with the rest of the team. Paula was conducting an audio interview with Suria for a multi-media piece she is developing. Later in the day, Paula also interviewed Nasima for the same project.
