March Progress Report

We're making steady progress in our preparations to build Twegashe Primary School. Highlights from our March newsletter include getting our 501(c)(3) approval, finding a machine that makes blocks suitable for earthquake-resistant construction, receiving an offer to drill a well for the school, and having a few new volunteers join our team.

Trip Update from Karatu

Our first day-and-a-half in Tanzania was very eventful, with visits to the Maasae Girls School and Orkeeswa Secondary School in Monduli, and to the Rift Valley Children's Village in Karatu.

On January 27 we leave for a two-week trip to Tanzania with our volunteer builder. The trip will include visits to a number of schools across northern Tanzania to learn about their construction methods, and a week-long stay in Bushasha village. A very exciting field trip!
