What About the Girls?
Posted by dcadmin | Filed under News
A recent e-mail from Wilson bring Tanzanian realities into stark relief. He has told us that there are seven children in Losimingori who have graduated from Form Seven, which is roughly our 7th grade. (think of that…. only seven out of his entire community). The parents do not have the funds to pay tuition to a distant boarding school. Following Maasai practices, it is likely that the girls will be married off if they do not continue in school. We are pondering …. perhaps a teacher could be hired to live in the village and conduct a year of intense English prep? Until we get that school built? Is this possible? We shall see. We will keep on keeping on…. To those of you who are the praying sort, we appreciate your prayers.
