Project Waterfall would like to introduce Zofia Wootliff. Zofia started interning with us this summer, and has since become an invaluable member of our team. She has worked to strengthen our community relations in London, while also expanding our social media presence by reaching out to our friends in the coffee industry. We look forward to seeing how she spreads the mission of Project Waterfall at her high school this Autumn.
Friday 15th July: National Give Something Away Day
This week we are so excited to share the story of one of our dedicated interns, Zofia. Zofia started working for The Allegra Foundation this summer and has done amazing work helping us expand our social media platform. More importantly though, Zofia is currently on the ground of one of our projects in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where she is visiting the Kibebe Tsehay orphanage.
