Together We Are

02.21.11
Hello everyone!

So I believe I have talked to some of you about this upcoming project..and others of you have no idea what I'm talking about right now! Well this summer I will be living, working, volunteering, and documenting in Ghana, West Africa. I am leaving just after graduating high school and returning a week before I leave for college in Savannah, Georgia. I will be working with Light for Children, an organization focused on supporting HIV positive children in the Ashanti region. Along with volunteering for three months I will be making a documentary about my journey, Light for Children, living with AIDS, and the amazing people of Ghana. 

I am embarking on this mission and am funding the entire trip myself. This is my dream trip and I have been trying to save as much as possible over the past few years to be able to have enough money to go. I have crunched the numbers between what I have saved and what needs to be spend...and they turn up in the red. Please consider making a donation through the donation page on my website. 

For more information about me, this project, and how you can help please visit this project's website at: 

Also, if you are on facebook please like this fanpage.

Thank you in advance for all of your support, I really appreciate it. Email me if you have any questions, concerns or comments.

Please forward this message on to anyone who you think would be interested in this project!

Love, Rebecca Kuntz

Snowpocalypse 2011

02.02.11
You thought there was a lot of snow in my last post?....Well guess again. I have never seen this much snow in my entire life. Chicago was hit with 40 mile an hour winds, 2 feet of snow, white out conditions and 4 foot snow drifts...all in 24 hours. Every school in the area is closed sending students running outside to act like children again and play in the snow.
