The Talents of Our Elders

Did you know we've got some talented refugee elders in Louisville?  Our elders are artists, bakers, athletes, cooks, teachers, engineers...and this:



Boi Van arrived from Vietnam in March 2010 and has been attending the Refugee Elder Program ever since; he is an absolute joy to have in our class.  He is usually one of the first elders to arrive and can be seen helping set up the classrooms.  He likes to meticulously arrange the coffee mugs for snack time, too.  I tell people that he has more strength in his pinkie than I do in my whole body...which is closer to the truth than a joke. 

Don't forget about our first ever Summer Supply Drive; it will benefit all of the elders, including Boi Van!
