UVA Today
Peter Chege has a vision. Born in a rural Kenyan village, he wants to bring that village into the modern world. With the help of some friends, he may do it.
Chege, who graduated from the apprenticeship program at the University of Virginia’s Division of Facilities Management and who has since worked at the University as an electrician, is a happy man who favors brightly colored shirts and smiles as he talks in enthusiastic bursts. He says he is on a mission from God to improve his life and the lives of the people in his village.
