We are Maital and Adam Baldachin, and this was our blog about our year in Uganda, Africa from July 2007-June 2008. Maital received the Labouisse fellowship from Princeton University to expand a library that she began in the summer of 2005. This library officially opened in July 2009. Adam traveled to Mbale as an American Jewish World Service fellow and the Masort Olami Representative in Uganda. He then worked with the Abayudaya as a B'chol Lashon Fellow. We are continuing to collaborate with Bushikori Christian Centre to establish a community library in Mbale, Uganda. We are currently living in Jerusalem, Israel, where Maital is a Dorot Fellow and Adam is learning at Machon Schechter as part of his rabbinical school studies at the Jewish Theological Seminary.
