Let's Take a Walk and Talk
Peace of the World International is an NGO that has been hosting "Peace Talks" for the past three or four years. But, there is an upcoming Peace Talk that encompasses a little walking.
The Road to Peace Walk encompasses 530 miles from Nairobi in the southern portion of Kenya up into the northern territory which borders Ethiopia. Dr. Crocheron wants this to be what she calls a "leisurely walk" taking 54 days beginning September 5, 2009. In a recent interview, she said, "This is a grand opportunity to go through villages that never see any kind of tourism and experience culture on a deeper level than experienced by those who come looking for animals or peering through tour bus windows. I want to bring attention to the beauty of the land and in the faces of the people yet not ignoring either conditions of poverty or wealth under which people are living as I travel along the way."
Staff and volunteers of Peace of the World International are helping Dr. Crocheron to plan a true marathon with her walking from the southern region to the northern tip of Kenya to inspire others to work for peace and bring attention to the suffering of children with HIV/Aids, the plight of orphans and the poor, and to raise funds and awareness for the Peace Complex and Asaviour® House in Malawi. Both are projects of Peace of the World International: the Peace Complex at Huri Hills will include a vocational training center, free clinic, clear water wells, World Peace Flame Monument and a Children's Peace Academy. The Asaviour® Houses are designed to support the total person through wholistic projects, programs, and living style.
Known to most people as Dr. Sophia Asaviour, this 55-year old communications network owner is also the founder of Peace of the World International, an NGO with satellites in nine countries and three U.S. states. She is quite the adventurer. Several years ago, she drove 1,942 miles "alone" from Michigan to Sedona Arizona. She says: "The trip took five days, "only because I stopped in so many beautiful places and also in Illinois to visit my old prep school alma mater. Once in Oklahoma, it was not unusual to find me stopping every 20 minutes or so just to take photos of the awesome landscapes. The mountain ranges of New Mexico alone were worth the extra day's travel. The whole trip was absolutely marvelous...an unforgettable experience."
