So, its all booked and four of my friends from Calgary and Okotoks, will soon be heading off to Arusha, Tanzania, for the month of July, to visit Karim Orphanage. I am extremely excited for them and soooo wish I was going back! They are trying to raise $10,000 for Bridges of Hope, which will go towards purchasing a school bus for Sotwa Wilson school. Anything over and above that amount will go towards the children's Education fund. Two of them, Barb and Crystal, are teachers, so this is absolutely perfect for them, something that they are all so passionate about, 'Education'. Getting these children to school, is so important and getting an Education is even more important. These children have dreams.... BIG dreams, like all of us and the only way their dreams will become a reality, is having an Education!
