WfWI informed me this week that I have been matched with a woman in Afghanistan. Here is the little bit that I know about her so far:
Her name is Mena.
She is between 29 and 30 years old.
She is married and without children.
She started her program in March 2010 and will graduate next February.
Sadly, I don't have a picture of her due to cultural reasons (pictures of women are off limits), but I plan to write her tonight and start filling you in on our conversations. Fingers crossed that I hear back!
It's amazing, but just having a name makes this whole sacrifice 1000x more meaningful. My weekly feast is officially dedicated to you, Mena.
