Building Business in Kenya.
I made my first trip to Africa in 2000. Like many adventuresome American boys I dreamt of the trip since my youth. And like nearly every other American who achieves the dream of traveling Africa, the stark poverty struck me hard. I became committed to sharing the prosperity America gave me. But after a childhood in the poorest neighborhood in Washington state in the culture of generational poverty, I had no stomach for myopic, ivory tower charity. I'm interested in creating genuine prosperity.
