You will embark on a journey into the great joys and perils of Africa through the eyes of four-young-naive and unassuming Americans. As we join Scott, Eric, Dan, and Adam on their crusade to 'save the world', you too may just fall in-love with Uganda and Rwanda, meet some new friends, and change your life for the better.

They will visit Internally Displaced People camps and witness the short and long term effects of genocide and tribal wars. They gain a new understanding of the immense devastation HIV/AIDS is creating across the continent of Africa..

Yet, in the end, you too will may start to believe the world can be a better place and that it is up to you to change it!
