Urbana Video Recap - Swaziland

So this past year was almost entirely focused on Urbana for our family. Most notably, Matt traveled to New York and Swaziland to help produce the below videos.

Swaziland was the most intense project as Matt was gone almost two weeks and he and his team traveled all over the place not even sure if they'd get the story they came to get. The went to document World Vision care workers who have received medical kits from World Vision. These medical kits are fairly simple but extremely useful in places like rural Swaziland. One night at Urbana was completely devoted to building these medical kits (32,000 of them to be exact). The videos below were a part of that night.

The last one in particular is a favorite of mine. It's a testimony of one of the aid workers at Urbana. I actually had no idea she would be there and after hearing so much about Matt's trip and seeing so much work go into putting this night together, I was in tears when she walked out.
