Although I never had the honor to meet Bob Marley, I did have the privilege of spending time with Rita Marley in her adopted home of Konkonuru, Ghana. In fact, this was Explore’s first ever fact finding trip. We became so bonded that Rita went to the tribal chiefs and had me honorarily “adopted.” To this day, I use the name CHARLEY MARLEY. Rita is pure love and her works reflect the selfless nature of explore.org.
Happy Birthday, Dad! (technically)
Never stop learning,
Charley Marley
The Rita Marley Foundation strengthened the community of Konkonuru, Ghana by building a brand-new medical clinic and improving its school. Watch the short film “Rita Marley’s Town” below:
