Lineke and me, the parents of Joris, have already a long time ties in the North West of Tanzania. This is one of the poorest areas in the world with lots of Aids
and HIV infected people. Also many children die because of Malaria and T.B.
In the area are sisters working in home-care and education.
Last year we succeeded to repair the school of Mugana and give new furniture. Already a long time we try to help the sisters themselves. These African sisters live in a house what is cracking down . Snakes come through the holes in the walls and water is not coming via a good water-system but via the roof with heavy rains in a few buckets and sometimes also on the tables. Toilets and showers are not working well.
This project will be subsidized by NCDO Dutch government with 26.000 euro. The other 26.000 we are planning to find in the street or with festivals. We had a nice festival on Queens day on 30th of April in Witmarsum.
At the moment we have 12.000 euro. So we are on our way. At the festival will be lots of food and drinks ,supplied by De Welstand.
We also try to sell that weekend African arts, so do not forget your purse.
