Emily George, a member of Touch A Life's volunteer staff, is spending a month in Ghana, conducting research on human trafficking and collecting statistics regarding the problem on Lake Volta. 

She has spent the first part of the trip at the City of Refuge in Tema. She's gotten the opportunity to connect with the children, and she even raised enough money for them to take what was, for most, their first-ever field trip to the beach. Here's an excerpt from Emily's e-mail updates, which detail her activity in Ghana:

• The kids continue to amaze me daily. It's beautiful to see how capable they are of giving and receiving love after everything they have been through on the lake. It's a miracle. Our evenings are filled with singing and dancing and chasing and teasing. I even had the privilege of judging a song and dance contest the other night. It was fantastic!
