DESCRIPTION:Please join us in viewing The Girls of Daraja films, (exec. producer 
 Deborah Santana). \nJason and Jenni Doherty, Founders of Daraja Academy in 
 Kenya, are giving a Q & A session after the viewings. \n\nJason: "I fell in 
 love with East Africa and Kenya, specifically, after visiting with my 
 family in the 1980's. After graduating from University of San Diego, I 
 moved to Tanzania, where I lived at a secondary school. I witnessed how 
 devoted the students were to their education. Though I returned to 
 California, earning my teacher credentials, and met my wife, Jenni, dreams 
 of returning to Africa never left for very long. Those dreams, Jenni's 
 talents, and the belief of thousands of others are the seeds that became 
 Daraja Academy. Personally, Daraja Academy is a dream come true. Every day 
 I see proof that individuals can make the world a better place. Never 
 before have I witnessed such cooperation and the desire to improve as I 
 have among the teachers and students of Daraja Academy." \n\nJenni: "I 
 graduated from Sonoma State University in 2004 with a BA in English 
 Literature. I put my education to use as a Research Associate at WestEd, an 
 educational consulting firm based in San Francisco, California. I was 
 directly involved in the planning, execution, and evaluation of several 
 research projects for the California Department of Education Child 
 Development Division. In 2008, I moved with my husband, Jason, to Kenya to 
 start Daraja Academy. As the first woman in my family to graduate from 
 university, I value my education and want to share that opportunity with 
 all the women that I encounter. I get to fulfill this desire as I work with 
 the students, staff, and partners of Daraja Academy. This project is truly 
 my life's work and I look forward to each day that I get to work with my 
 amazing husband, the incredible Daraja Girls, the dedicated staff, and the 
 passionate supporters of this program."\n
