Hannah Baldwin Fund
Hannah Baldwin was a development professional with a passion for helping those she served, as a Peace Corps Voluneer and Director, and a USAID program director. She lived for many years in Senegal and continued her support for her friends and adopted family members there until her passing in November of 2024. Over the years Hannah was a strong supporter of Tostan, believing in its mission and contributing wherever she went to helping Tostan spread its programs to include Guinea and Mali. She encouraged members of her family to support and volunteer for Tostan.
At the request of her family Felipe, Malado, and Francisco, Tostan has established the Hannah Baldwin Fund to encourage others to help sustain Tostan and its efforts in the future.
