Jambo Jambo!
This will be a quick post because I didn't realize that it has been over a week since I last posted. You wake up here and all of a sudden it is a week later than you thought it was.
I have already used $300 of the donations to put a deposit on 7 doors for the new Boys Dorm! This is exciting because the boy should be able to move into the dorms in the next month or so.
Sometime this week we are taking 15 of the children into a local market in Moshi to but new clothes!!! The orphanage is only about 20 minutes from Moshi but most of the children have NEVER travelled there. Moshi is the city I live in that rests below the roof of Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro. This may be the biggest city they may ever travel through.
Some of the other volunteers and I are thinking of giving each child a picture of themselves. We would include their name, date of picture, and where the picture was taken. The orphans don't have anything like this. We would like to add how old they are and where they are from but most of them do not know. I'll be sure to keep you updated on this project.
Thanks again for reading!

Tyler,
What a great idea with the photographs! Is there anything you need from a photography teacher? I love hearing about your experiences...one of our student teachers is headed to finish his experience in Africa starting next Wednesday!
Happy blogging, and more great moments,
Amanda
