INSPIRATION SPOTLIGHT: AMAZING ASHLEY
Ashley Pax Grabner loves kids. She loves them so much that she founded Ashley’s Playhouse, a childcare center in Austin, Texas, to provide a loving, safe environment for kids to learn through purposeful play. She is a long-time supporter of the Run For The Water Kids’ Corner, providing opportunities for kids to get involved in giving the gift of clean water.
Explore Burundi: The Akazehe
Explore Burundi: Akazehe greetings are part of the rich oral tradition of Burundi, which relays history and stories through the spoken word, poetry, and song. The akazehe turns a simple daily greeting into an interwoven, call and response musical form. It has a poetic quality, elevating a simple courtesy into an almost ceremonial act.
