San Diego: "It’s not fun being a stranger"

The San Diego Reader

 

“It’s not fun being a stranger and no money and in a foreign country where you don’t know anybody. So I found out about IRC, and I went to them, and I told them my story and they were so helpful. They are still very helpful to me.”

- Mary Page, a Kenyan artist who, with support from the IRC, sells her jewelry and handicrafts at San Diego's City Heights Farmers Market.  Her story was featured in a piece in the San Diego Reader last week.
