Shimbwe Village

On August 2, I joined Ambassador Maajar and her sister Dr. Eve Hawa Sinare for a weekend at their Shimbwe village home for the purpose of visiting Sia Secondary School which would like to receive the Powering Potential Educating-Through-Technology program. It had been raining and we needed to buy boots for the muddy trek to the school.

Ambassador Maajar and I also met with officers of the Moshi Rotary Club to discuss a collaboration with the Livermore, CA Rotary Club for a Rotary International grant.
