Wheel Tales Podcast: Recent Episodes
Dewaga Cooperative
There are some incredible people and things going on in the world. We are a cooperative of storytellers that travel the world telling the stories of people who are helping people. Stories that inspire, educate, motivate. Stories that help us feel and experience from our very heart. Stories that can be as exciting as a crime drama and as compelling as a radio show. People and sounds that bring the show to life. These are riveting, moving and inspiring stories that will make a difference in your life. Take a listen.
Today we are visiting with Emily Francona. Emily is one of the original founders of the State of Jefferson eClub and works with Adopt a Village in Guatemala.
This podcast is very different from most other podcasts. We are field podcaster's. Storytellers from around the world collecting real stories of people helping people. Using the power of audio so you can be there and experience what it’s like to hear, feel yes and even see through their eyes.
Today we are talking to Dr. Lucinda Kolo who works at the Veterans facility at White City Oregon. Dr. Kolo is a new member of the Rotary eClub of the State of Jefferson and has a special love for Africa. She has been working there for many years offering free clinics to remote villages. Here are some of her adventures.
Today were visiting with John Alman. John is a member of the eClub and lives in New Mexico. For the past several years he has worked on The Navajo Solar Light project bringing solar lights to the Navajo Nation. This is more than just lights, the impact goes way beyond that. Listen and find out why.
Today were talking with Thomas DeVere Wolsey. If the name sounds familiar its probably because in the 1500s his ancestor was the famous Archbishop of England under Henry the XIII. Tom is making his own impact on the world through his work at the American University in Cairo and on literacy programs around the world including a project recently funded with a grant from the State of Jefferson. We spoke with him on a warm evening in Cairo.
Today we are visiting with Emily Francona. Emily is one of the original founders of the State of Jefferson eClub and the lead with Lets Leave No Girl Behind, our clubs signature project. This is a special two part show. It begins with our discussion a few months ago, shortly after her return from visiting the Maya Jaguar school in Guatemala. Then Emily gives us an update and how the COVID pandemic is impacting the kids in the village.
