Pippa Biddle Article Response

The article by Pippa Biddle is very inspiring because she really went out of her way to help other people from Tanzania and the Dominican Republic. She said that when she went to the Dominican Republic she struggled to communicate with the staff and children because she barely spoke Spanish. But even though she struggled in communicating with people, the language was not a hindrance for her to pursue her dreams of helping people. The most interesting thing she said was that she did not want the children to thank her for everything she had done but to think of the leaders, mothers, or teachers in the children’s community. Clearly, she wants the children to think about the people in their own community who are there always to serve them. She wants the children to be proud of their culture rather than other people who come from outside their community. But I think the children should recognize the role she plays by volunteering in their community.
