Project Nine Mile

In the next 12 months, at least 3 of my friends are going abroad to participate in philanthropy projects. First is my buddy Mina who is currently in Nine Mile, Jamaica, the birthplace of Bob Marley. In association with Schools Without Borders, he's helping the staff and students at Stepney All Ages School catch up with the 21st century digital world. Being an avid film maker, Mina is also documenting his experience in a film and blogging whenever Internet connectivity exists.

The Project Nine Mile blog provides an interesting perspective on their progress and Mina's flickr stream is full of expressive photographs.

If their pictures and words move you, show them your support!
