Jerry from Uganda: An Open Learner's Story

I'm a minister and war vet in Nevada. We could use some help with the orphanage we support in Kampala. Even if you don't trust me, you could just go there and help them finish the roof. It has been leaking when it rains for weeks. We have pitched in to fix it, but we are poor and cannot send further funds at this time. They need more. The orphanage itself adopted a pregnant woman who had her baby there and has nowhere else to go, so she helps the orphans in exchange for space to sleep for her and her newborn. And calling it an orphanage is laughable. It's a house. And they have to abandon that bedroom when it rains. Everyone crammed together to stay dry and sleep. - I'm not an open-learner. I could be, I suppose. I just follow this channel? Digest whatever topic we're discussing today? (btw, my comment is for the guy speaking from Kampala, if that was't apparent > I'm busy at the moment and behind schedule. I'll check it out this video in full when I can and try to contribute something intelligible to the conversation) UPDATE: Wow. Kampala is rough, and obviously low on resources. SUPER cool that MIT allows some of their knowledge to be offered for free. And awesome that Jerry was able to find it.
