"Stone by Stone" is the incredible story of the Sawadogo family in Burkina Faso in Africa and the Makofskys in North America who, since 2003, have worked together to build the Paradise Orphanage and Elementary School, which now houses 120 children in Kaya, Burkina Faso, with construction of a new high school underway and plans to build a future university. What makes this story so compelling is that it tells the story of how two families, with the support of their community and friends, armed with perseverance and determination, took a leap of faith together and made the decision to start building the orphanage, without meeting for years and without government help. Their journey transcends borders and religions.
