With the VHW founder, executive director, board of directors, and a NY-based architect who will be designing the new women's center, we went on a walked down a dirt path, under African Palm leaves to visit many of the villagers who come to the VHW clinic. We greeted a woman who was well over 70 years old, held a baby that was only 1 week old. We looked at homes constructed from mud and straw. Their poor ventilation is a breeding ground for tuberculosis, one of the diseases most commonly treated at VHW.
