Mission and Program Overview
Mission
Build schools to educate the children of tanzania. After building our first school in november 2011, we continue to keep contact with the head master of the school (and others), and a representative from 8 to a lamp visits the school annually. Approximately 100+ students are attending the school at this time. We continue to raise funds for our new construction of a technical school. So far we have purchased the beginnings of the construction process and are waiting for more funds to continue the process.
