Tanzania Team #8 is ready for launch!
Tanzania Team #8 will be flying out of San Diego at 8:30am on Saturday, February 12th. The team will return on Tuesday, March 1st, at 7:00pm. There will be 17 volunteers traveling to the city of Arusha and then traveling by land out to central Tanzania.
During the 2 1/2 week trip the team will be:
* Installing a playground at the Children's Center in Singida Town.
* Constructing a mini strip mall for small businesses to rent that will help cover the operational cost of the Children's Center.
* Ground breaking of a medical clinic with Hadzabe Tribe.
* Meeting with the Tanzania Prime Minister and Commissioner of Social Welfare to discuss child adoptions.
* Distributing meals shipped from San Diego (2.7 million) and installing water filter systems.
There have been 106 volunteers from FFCC that have left their mark on the hearts of the people in Tanzania. Thank you, San Diego, for another opportunity to represent you and our county as we bring the much needed resources of building materials, packaged food, water kits, encouragement, and hope.
