Emily Rieman, Zippy Kumundu, and Spring Sutter, founders of I’ll Tell You My Story.

I’ll Tell You My Story is an organization that formed in a very unconventional way, when a writer named Spring Sutter, a filmmaker named Zippy Kumundu, and a photographer Emily Rieman very simply decided to do something seemingly unfathomable. Relying primarily on positive thinking and the modest personal resources they had on hand, these phenomenal women created a storytelling workshop for refugee girls who were fleeing conflict in Eastern Africa. What began as a single week-long workshop in Nairobi continues as an annual program, and has expanded into a second set of workshops in Uganda.

Please join PMA’s editor in chief in a conversation with the three founders of this hope-filled organization as they discuss their amazing program and all the things they’ve learned along the way.
