the two of us
Stacie and Jason have been in Bulgaria since August 6, 2007 volunteering with the Peace Corps.
Stacie works at a house for youth coordinating after school activities including an English club, camps, and a health education program. In the next few months she hopes to begin also partnering with other organizations to work against human trafficking and other social challenges here in Sliven.
Jason is working at a business development center and soon will be helping members from the Roma community to develop and get funding for small businesses. In the near future he will also begin working with businesses at the business incubator as well as a Junior Achievement program.
