Dear   ,
 ngorongoro group 

That's a wrap!

 

FFCC Team Tanzania #8 returned home Tuesday night, March 1, after 18 days of traveling to and working with the people of Tanzania, East Africa. 

 

A partial list of their accomplishments includes:

 

* Preparation of land for a new playground adjacent to the Children's Center in Singida, including the clearing and leveling of land and the construction of walls.

 

* Construction on business kiosks (dukas) next to the playground which will be an income source for the Children's Center for years to come.

 

* Groundbreaking for a new medical dispensary for the Hadzabe tribe.

 

* Installation of 25 water filter systems in homes, clinics, and hospitals, and training of the users of the new systems.

 

* Meeting with Regional and District Commissioners and the Prime Minister on a variety of subjects pertaining to the work FFCC is doing in Tanzania.

 

   and, most importantly,

 

* Building relationships between FFCC and the people of Tanzania.

 

 

Thank you for your support of the team, the notes you sent, and most of all for your prayers.  They made a difference!!
