NORTH KINGSTOWN – As the second most populated city in South Africa, Cape Town is becoming quite the popular tourist attraction. And that’s where you’ll find North Kingstown resident Cydnee DeToy, but she’s there for work, not play.
Arriving July 5, DeToy is nearly halfway through a year-long Princeton Fellowship where she’s working for Mothers2Mothers, a non-government organization (NGO) that helps HIV-infected pregnant women prevent the transmission of the virus to their babies.
