Things are HAPPENING!

Power
THANK YOU DONORS!
We are moving along SLOWLY!! But none the less moving.
We have started to build the class room building, despite a shortage (OK, the country RAN OUT of cement). And we were pleased to learn the government has started to move power out to the very rural area where the Secondary school is located. This will greatly help power things once our building is built and outfitted.
But, we still need to bring in more funds. Desks, and chairs will definitely be needed. And we will need to have 2 instructors to teach the skills the students will need to be successful.
We are working hard to make all this happen! If you are still able to donate, it would be so appreciated!
And just in time for this report... Our annual fundraiser and auction is coming. It will be a virtual event help March 9 - 15th. We will send out information via our newsltter and facebook page. We hope you will spread the word and join us in bidding!!
The students we support are so grateful for your generosity and kindness. Please keep up your amazing generosity!!

Slow and Steady
By AMY WOODRUFF | Admin Manager
We are moving along slow and steady with our work to create a computer lab for the Secondary students at Mwaji School. While our in country manager is busy getting pricing for all the supplies and materials we will need, we will also be working to raise funds to build a classroom for the lab.
And just like in the western world (first world) supplies are short. In fact, as hard as it may be to imagine, Tanzania, ran out of cement this year. All the buildings Orphans Africa builds are made of cement. These kinds of "snags", obviously slow things down.
But we push on. We are hopeful we will soon be able to raise the additional funds needed to build the classroom. This will create an amazing opportunity for the students as well as the villagers in the surrounding area, as we are hopeful to be able to offer courses in computers to those people as well. It will also attract even more students to the school!
We hope everyone is staying healthy! Tanzania has nor received many vaccines so the risks are still quite high for the country. Thankfully, the OA students have created hand washing stations and the government in general is promoting safe practices.
