Taking the LEAP
Better Futures founder Michael P. Kraft visited Zambia as a participant in the Taking the LEAP program with iLEAP: The Center for Critical Service, based in Seattle, U.S.A. While in Zambia, Michael exchanged technical know-how for exposure to the sustainable development practices of Chipembi Farm College. While at Chipembi, Michael forged several key relationships, laying the groundwork for future collaborative projects with the farm college and the surrounding community. For a closer look at some of Michael’s key experiences, please see his entries on the iLEAP blog.
