This quarter is so unique to TAHUDE Foundation and the whole Gongali Community. We are glad that our project is attracting local and international attention. The government leaders formerly invited our Biogas project to be one of the exhibitors in National Health and Environment Day on 2nd June 2017. It was a splendid event.
Moreover, we received more than 100 foreign visitors who wanted to visited our project. The attached photos shows university students from USA visiting one of our customers in Gongali village - Tanzania. They were so impressed by our innovation.
These connections are contributing to our project publicity and we have been receiving donations from Anonymous (we respect the privacy of our customers who did not reveal their names) - but some donors also revealed their names. To all of them - along with the GlobalGiving - we say THANK YOU SO MUCH!
At present we have already built 89 biogas systems to our customers by June 2017. With your timely support we will be able to reach our target of 100 households before the end of 2017 - then we can cover more customers and scale-up this initiative to other regions in Tanzania and across Sub-Sharan Africa. The need is bigger than our financial capacity. For details about our project and how it benefit our underserved community, particularly women and girls (pain of looking for firewood for cooking, painful smoke when cooking with trees, eyes problem, etc), please contact us via hilonga@gmail.com.
