Core expectations for VolunteersDuring my first service, I was surprised to be the first Black American that so many people from Lesotho had met, but our meeting gave them real-life exposure to our sorely misrepresented culture, which they had only viewed through the media. In Ukraine, I had the chance to do the same: I became someone’s window into America.
