Thanks to all of you for traveling on this spiritual journey with us as we prepare to head to Tanzania in just a few short weeks! Team Tanzania, consisting of 19 very dedicated youth and adults, continues to grow and learn as we move forward to our July 27th departure date. We will be working with children at the Kilimanjaro English Nursery School, many of whom have been orphaned by HIV.
The Kilimanjaro English School is located at the base of Mt. Kilimanjaro, in the African village of Moshi, Tanzania. The school was founded by Edward Lazaro who is better known as “Teacher”. Teacher founded the school in 1997 to help local children orphaned by AIDS and others who needed help. Today the school serves over 250 children ages 3 to 8 years old. One of the primary goals of the school is to put young children on the path of hope and opportunity providing resources to help them grow strong in mind, body and spirit.
This school is more than just a school. It provides basic food and basic care and shelter to severely underprivileged children and very importantly provides a safe and positive environment for them outside of school hours.
