Peace Corps volunteer Jeanette Batiste (Malawi ’03-’05) is looking for volunteers to help raise funds for ASAP (A Self-help Assistance Program) Africa’s Malawi program expansion by volunteering to pre-sell fresh roasted coffee from Africa during the month of August.

As program coordinator, Batiste is heading up the ASAP Africa Malawi program in The Shire Valley in Southern Malawi, the same area she worked as a Peace Corps volunteer. This is one of the

poorest areas of Malawi, and it is where ASAP will be implementing grass roots skills training projects to help the people there work their way out of poverty.

ASAP has it’s own local coffee roasting facility and all coffee you sell will be fresh roasted when orders are received and delivered by Labor Day.

To become a part of ASAP’s “Labor of Love Campaign” today, send an email to Foong Yu, foongyu@asapafrica.org, who will send you all the details and order forms.

For more information on ASAP Africa, visit www.asapafrica.org or call 770-632-7451.
