So I leave Friday for AFRICA!
I recently learned that my placement is Tuleenui Orphanage. I will be there from 7:30 in the morning to 1:30 in the afternoons. After, I can go to other placements including the women and childrens' clinic for those with HIV/AIDS.
check out their website with more info and pictures of the kids!

Orphanage - Caring for children, fun and educational activities for children

They have children varying in age from nursery school through secondary school.
