It has happened. I have created the circle back to Tanzania. Last week, I was very happy to final start wiring money back to some of the organizations in the book.
I have started with donations of $200 and I have addressed 4 of the groups so far.
Elimu
Shepherds Junior
Best Centre for the Blinds
Educare
I hope to do more soon, but I realize that I have a reprint of the book that might have to happen soon. I have also requested that everyone get back to me on how the funds have been used and this came back to me from Shija at Educare.
Dear Eoin
Re: Funds being raised, I received . thanks a lot for a fantastic work you done, Congratulation. About our Educare programs, we still working in a hard situation, but we praise God that he enable us and we are continuing well. We established a orphanage project with kindergarten school, This is located at Kisongo about 10 km from Arusha town among the Arusha - Dodoma road, after passing Arusha airport.
This project, the aim is to provide education for those children who are orphans, HIV / AIDS victims and those from poor families. We strive for maasai’s children and farmers The effected number of students is 15, this is the minimum which we have, but maximum will be 30 to 40. who are totally living in the orphanage. Those we provide food, medication, clothes, school materials
So, we have big needs. The money, will use for food, medication, clothes for orphans who are in orphanage and to pay house rent. This will impact our children to be healthily, ability to be in class.
Thanks Eoin for good work.
Have a nice day.
Yours
Novat Shija
Educare coordinator
Thanks to everyone that came out last night to hear me talk. I am told that I did a good job. Conveniently, I hit the play button instead of the record button on my camcorder, so I do not get to over analyze my nervousness. The record of the night is in the minds of the 100 +- people that where there.
