This quarter we are reporting OUTSTANDING achievement. One of our product, low-cost water filter, won the Africa Prize for Engineering Innovation, Sponsored by The Royal Academy of Engineering.
During my presentation for the competition, I was proud to show GLOBALGIVING as one of our partners. As you can see in the attached photos, Volunteering University students have been so MOTIVATED and are grateful to be involved in our initiative.
These volunteers now aggressively sell our solar lanters to their home towns/villages to replicate what they leant in GONGALI VILLAGE MODEL.
Unfortunately, our capacity to purchase the solar lanterns is now very low to handle the high interest shown by the students. With your increased support we will be able to engage many students and teachers at primary schools, secondary, to university.
We will continuously give reports and we WELCOME you to Tanzania to witness this flourishing local initiative started by Africans in Africa for Africans.
THANKS FOR YOUR RELENTLESS SUPPORT!
