Earl Reaburn, 21, of R.R. 5
Goderich is going to ex-
perience the Third World
first-hand this year.
Beginning in May, the
second year University of
Toronto studentwill be
spending four months in the
West African country of
Ghana, on a Canadian
Crossroads International
( CCI) program.
Since 1958, when CCI
became a separate
organization from
Crossroads Africa, over 1,000
volunteers have been sent to
25 developing countries in
Asia, Africa, South America
and the Carribean to work
directly with local families
and groups in health care,
construction, agriculture
and education while
establishing new relation-
ships based on mutual.
respect and understanding-
between
nderstandingbetween Canadians and
people of the Third World.
GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1981—PAGE3A
eaburn to experience Third World
At present, Earl knows
only that his particular
Crossroads project will
involve agriculture in the
village of Yendi. He will be
the only Crossroader
working in that village and
this fact, he says, will force
him to get more involved
with the people. His par-
ticular agricultural project
could include anything from
raising oxen to digging
ditches and he is prepared
for hard manual laborwhile
acting as an ambassador for
Canada at the same time.
Earl is studying French
and English at university
and eventually hopes to be
ordained as a United Church
minister. Be haswanted to
become involved with
Crossroads ever since he
first heard about the
organization from a family
friend at the age of 12.
As soon as he was old
enough (Crossroaders must
beat least 20),-hesubrnitted-
ana application, was in-
terviewed' and sent on a self-
assessment weekend. He
was accepted _ for the
program and then for the
next year he became in-
volved in the selection of
other 'people who will be
going overseas at the same
time he will.
Before leaving for Ghana,
Earl will undergo an
orientation program to, learn
about Third World politics
and issues and more
specifically about Ghana's
background, its people,
health problems, money and
language. All Crossroaders
must be willing to adapt to
living and working with
people of a very different
culture from their own.
In order to go to Ghana,
Earl must raise $800 from
°this community and he is
presently busy, preparing
letters to be sent to area
service clubs asking for,
donations. This money will
be matched by a grant from
-Crossroads ,-and- - .from .the
Canadian International
Development Agency.

PURCHASES TO REASONABLE WEEKLY FAMILY REQUIREMENTS
Crossroaders receive no pay,
just a living allowance and
air fare to and from the
country they are going to.
Crossroads is a private,
non-profit, charitable
organization and its
programs are made possible
through contributions from
individuals, churches, clubs,
businesses and corporations.
It is- administered almost
entirely by volunteers.
However, five full-time
personnel are employed at
the head office in London,
Ontario.
Across Canada' there are
75 local committees which
recruit, select and orient'
candidates for overseas
placement. These com-
mittees also initiate fund
raising and , development
education activities in their
communities.
Crossroads' member
countries also have volun-
teer committees made up of
nationals who develop and
co-ordinate the projects
overseas, as well as select

people to come to Canada as
part of the cross cultural
exchange program.
When Earl returns home
from Ghana in August, the
Crossroads program
requires that he devote 200
_hours of his time helping to
sensitize Canadians to the
values off Third World
cultures and the causes and
consequences ' of un-
derdevelopment. He plans to
do this by speaking to
community groups about his
experiences and by trying to
get others interested in the
Crossroads progratn.
It is easy to dismiss the
problems of,the Third World
if you just read - about them
or see a program a-kiouttliem
on television, says Earl. But
by actually living in a Third
World country, he hopes ' *�
become more aware Ind
more sensitive to what is
going on there and thus
make others more sensitive
andawaretoo.
Earl spent six weeks in
Poland last summer and
once visited Spain, on a high
school trip. But Crossroads
is not just a travel ex-
perience; he emphasizes. If
he wanted to see Ghana, it
would be easier and cheaper
to simply purchase an airline

the Crossroads program
however, he will have a
learning experience which
he will then be able to share
with others and which will
perhaps some day help him
in his work with the church.

they may contact him at the
