"I met Charles Wasswa when he brought his high-performing students to the region-wide SciFest Africa science festival. Both Charles and his student immediately stood out from the other teachers. Charles was engaged, warm, and knowledgable. His students were curious, enthusiastic about learning, and believed in themselves.

After meeting him at SciFest, I maintained a relationship with Charles for many years. I visited his school in rural Limpopo, South Africa, to work with his students directly. I talked with them about NASA's exploration of the solar system, the latest NASA discoveries, and how they could be involved. We hosted an astronomy open house for students and their families. Charles' students have kept in touch with me, and they regularly tell me how much of a difference he has made in their lives."
