Today Team Tanzania delivered another 750 bedkits to a school in Dar es Salaam here in Tanzania.
As with all the schools we visited, they start with an outdoor assembly where they sing their national anthem and other events that rally the students. Always a pleasure to watch.
During distribution, I had the opportunity to interview three mothers and their children. They told us very sincerely their deep appreciation for what we are providing their children. God Bless us was a frequent refrain.
After distribution we visited the Salvation Army home for children with various disabilities where they give them a home, education and fellowship. They try and prepare them for the outside world upon graduation with skills to sustain them. There are 20 children there and interestingly 32 of them are albino children that were saved from mostly rural areas that regarded these children as a curse. Many of them would not have survived. It was on one hand heartbreakingly to see the various disabilities yet good to see them happily playing together.
For the Children,
Ron Shaw for Team Tanzania 2018
