Wrap-up report of the Purposeful Penny Barbecue Party

This is a wrap-up report of the Barbecue Party. It turned out to be a great success with your presence and support. More than 40 people including GSPIA faculty and students, attended the party. We really appreciate those people who attended the party in spite of the fact that they had conflicting schedules - the football game, for example!

The party was successful not only because of the number of people who showed up, but also because of the information that we were able to share with you at the party. Thanks to Kristine Frye's presentation, we had the opportunity to learn about current work being undertaken at Bright Kids Uganda. We're thankful to Dr. Staniland for his continued support for our initiative. We are really excited about the fact that a lot of new GSPIAns joined this event, which means this was a great opportunity for us to reach out to the incoming GSPIAn community.

As you may know, the term Penny in our title stands not only for the coins but also for the individual 'people' who join and work with us  for the cause of Purposeful Penny. Thank you all of you who made the event a great success by your presence and/or support.

Best regards,
Purposeful Penny Executive Board
