Asante to WGN and Bill Moller

Stella Maris Executive Lodge

Big thanks to WGN and Bill Moller!  It was another great opportunity to share our story and reach a larger audience.  The next great step in helping these beautiful children is spreading our story as much as possible.  Luckily with kind people like Adam Mesirow and Lisa Trafficanta working hard to spread our story that has already been very successful.  It is almost more imperative than ever to spread our story because of the Stella Maris Executive Lodge (our hotel) is open for business.  Luckily for us there are no hotels in the area that offer a greater opportunity to help others simply by nothing more than spending a night there! 

It was a lot of fun hanging out with Bill and Adam Mesirow before I went on air.  The studio itself was an experience, since it was on Michigan Ave. (amid the NATO chaos) with people peering in (mid interview) and waving.  In between "on air" time Bill would talk to the people on the road passing by and engage the "live" audience.  It was new and slightly more nerve racking knowing that people were standing right there watching me, but I loved it though.  It was a lot of fun to be there to talk with Adam and Bill as well as get to know Bill before ever going on air.  He was able to relate quickly to the story because of his family, his experience in Africa and his understanding of teachers.  It was such a great opportunity and he was a tremendous host with great questions.  I could tell he really wanted to help and spread the word of the work we have been doing in Mailisita.
