Our Guest speaker was Heidemarie Schooling a dedicated teacher who has been working in Tanzania. Around 15 years ago our Club supported Heide in renovating the :Utawala School - this was what she thought the name was at it was what was on the gate, in Swahili it means Administration, the actual name was Mwampalala Catholic Secondary School. She gave a detailed presentation giving us an in site into the difficulties that the children have in getting the most basic of education in the poorer ares of East Africa. And the achievements of her students despite the adversity.
A group of forty have established a foundation the purchase land and built a pharmacy. Construction id well under way and she is raising funds to help with building the roof.
Heidemarie published a book :the Class of 2008" detailing her experiences and the achievement of her students which she give to people making a donation to help with the roof. A number of members in attendance on the night contributed to this effort.
