THE HERALD, says E&E RPCVs’ President Marian Beil, is the glue that holds our group of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers together, but glue, even when it is sent over the Internet, costs money. We are asking people to pay a fee of $10 a year, or $25 for three years, to support costs for The Herald and the other services we provide to our RPCVs including operating the RPCV Legacy Program and organizing reunions. Those for whom we have email addresses will receive emails announcing the articles that have been recently posted in THE HERALD.

Please share
One more thing: we’d like to get as many Ethiopia and Eritrea RPCVs to be part of our group. Please do share THE HERALD with your Peace Corps friends.
Many thanks.

Just seeing the Banner of the village at the top of The Herald almost made me cry. My mind was flooded with so many memories of my time there from 1964 – 1967 in Debre Zeit.
I am bless to work at a community college in Iowa where we have upwards of 50 nationalities on campus. One of our math instructors is from Ethiopia. Each spring the International Club here sponsors an International Day filled with entertainment and food from a myriad of countries. It is a fund raiser for their club. We have the most diverse campus in Iowa. It’s a pleasure to work here.
Now, if I could only run a mile I might go back!
Barry, It may be convenient to get The Herald by e-mail but I HATE all the shifting back and forth to read articles. Oh well, I guess horse riders hated the automobile and by the way why can’t I find a public telephone anymore?
