Acquired by RPCV, Aimee Schattner, these handmade woven baskets were crafted by local women in the African state of Rwanda. Ms. Schattner was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Kenya from 2002–2005.

If you are a RPCV or Staff, and would like to be added to the CDC/ATSDR Peace Corps Work Group (proposed), please send an email to cdcrpcv@cdc.gov.
