Provide Solar Lantern to Tanzanian School Children

It was so AMAZING and very exciting to receive visitors from the GlobalGiving Headquarters in U.S.A. They conducted training to 30 partners and we had a join lunch. It was such a happy in historical day in our organization.

Moreover, it was a powerful quarter because of the dissemination event we conducted at The Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology in Arusha, Tanzania. The event was conducted on 28^th April 2019 at the NM-AIST conference hall. It was attended by about 250 people as individuals from NM-AIST Community and Top Leadership and from various institutions (including the other project partners, Gongali Model and A-Z Textile Mills Ltd) and from the government (RMO/RHO Office, City Council, Water Department, etc). HDIF was represented by Eric and Joseph). The entertainment was made by 2 Choirs from Arusha. The event was covered by 2 TVs Star TV and ITV, many radios including Free Africa, Safina, Idea, Ngurumo, etc; and several other newspapers, such as Business Times, The Citizen, Mwananchi, etc. The guest was the Arusha Regional Commissioner represented by Mr. Allan Rushokana from the Arusha City Council. Gongali Model made an exhibition in 15 booths.  One booth was shared with A-Z Textile Mills Ltd.

Solar Lanterns were demonstrated very well, along with Nanofilter and Biogas. School children (beneficiaries of the Solar Lantern Project) assisted in promoting our motto of “say NO to use of plastic”. We promote REFILL business model (no use of plastic bottles as water containers).

THANKS for your relentless support for all these activities that are making impact to our community and ENVIRONMENT.
