Harvard Medical School announced that they are awarding Dr. Richard Bail of Newton, founder of Communities Without Borders, their Community Service Faculty Award for his work supporting the education of AIDS orphans and vulnerable children for the last ten years. Dr. Bail is only one of two faculty to receive this award this year. Dr. Bail in his characteristic humble manner said he shared the unexpected honor with everyone who has worked on this project to reach the current success of supporting 1,500 children and their caretakers in Zambia.
The mission of Communities Without Borders is to educate AIDS orphans and other vulnerable children, primarily in Africa, in order to nourish hope for a better future for them, society and the world. The Communities Without Borders approach fosters building ongoing community to community relationships at the grassroots level in order to increase the quality educational opportunities for these children.
