Project work October 2021

After a long 20 months, we could finally travel to Zanzibar again in October.

A lot has changed especially for the population as a result of Corona. Many people have become unemployed since tourism has plummeted and are now struggling along as day laborers.

We were happy to see that our co-worker King Banda took good care of our education projects  during our absence. News about this can be found under projects RIZIKI and ELIMU. 

Project RIZIKI: We went shopping for fabrics for the needed uniforms, as well as exercise books for our students who are still in the project. While distributing the notebooks we had again the opportunity to see "our" children, who have developed into young adults during the last years.

Project ELIMU: From our RIZIKI project we were able to enroll a young woman, Fatiha, at the University of Zanzibar. She wants to become a teacher. Since there was still a place available, she was able to start her studies already on 25 October 2021.
