Our distribution today in video!
The team completed Day 2 of our distributions at Majohe and are enroute back to our hotel. After completing the distribution, we visited the homes of two families whose children received a bedkit today. These families live in a remote rural area, and rely on growing a small cash crop for subsistence food and to try to earn a little extra if anything is left over. A mother, when asked about water for the family, said calmly she walked fifteen minutes to get water and then home again with a jug of water on her head. How many times a day she had to do this to support five children, we did not ask!

Following the family visits, we proceeded to the factory that produces the mattresses for the children. The company, Unoplast, has supplied mattresses for the bedkits for ten years, since inception of SCAW's involvement in Tanzania. The General Manager spoke to us of the importance to him of being involved in this charitable endeavour helping the needy children of Tanzania.
