About the Book

When I Looked Up is the spiritual journey of a young woman who, after being diagnosed with a life threatening illness, searches her soul only to find she's headed in the wrong direction. Through a pleading prayer, Jennifer surrenders to her soul's will and is thrust in a direction she never imagined--to help children in need. As the universe shifts to meet her on her new path, Jennifer learns her mission begins at an orphanage in Ghana, Africa. Choosing to travel alone to a third-world country, Jennifer questions the sanity of her decision. She searches for reassurance from her friends and family, but none comes, except from her one dearest uncle: "You will regret it more if you don't go. This is something you must do." Adjusting to the harsh geographic conditions and lack of food is minuscule in comparison to the belief systems, poverty level, and abuse of children Jennifer witnesses daily. But with the help of an orphanage-owner, Jennifer and her readers are taken on a journey through this impoverished countryside, to reveal its greatest gift.
About the Author: Jennifer Vacchio received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications and Journalism at the College of Mount Saint Vincent in Riverdale, New York. Immediately upon graduation, she worked as an assistant investigator for the Special Commissioner of Investigations for New York City Schools, where her work included investigations into sexual abuse of children in public schools and the drowning of a preteen during a school trip to a water park. Jennifer has done creative work in writing, production, and marketing for companies such as Turner Broadcasting, Millimeter Magazine, Arrow Electronics and St. John's University. In keeping with her dedication to helping children, Jennifer volunteered for such organizations as Tiny Stars and sponsored two children in the Philippines through Plan USA. Upon her return from Ghana, where she volunteered at an orphanage for three weeks, Jennifer shared her experiences through public-speaking engagements at public schools on Long Island and various Rotary clubs. Because she believes change for children in need begins with their mothers, Jennifer has also supported education for two women in Rwanda through Women for Women International. Jennifer and her husband, Steven, have been married for five years. They reside in Huntington, New York, and are the proud parents of an infant daughter, Noelle Serene, whom Jennifer currently cares for, full-time.
