MAMA WILSONS HOME
For those of you that know me well, and for those
that dont know me so well.. I think most of you have come to learn
about the individuals that have come to love very much over the last 8
years. Many of you know about the love story between me and the little
5 month old boy named WILSON, that I met in 2007. His mother,
Christina is a mother of 4... and wife of an abusive husband who sells
her livestock in order to buy alcohol. Last year her roof was
collapsing, and we were able to build a new roof before the rains
began. Now- it is too late... the roof has caved in, and the walls are
starting to collapse due to the extreme weather that hits this part of
Tanzania. The long rains will begin this month, and i know that there
is no way that her home will survive this. I URGE you to make a
dontation and help me build this family a new home. I am running out
of time- as once the rains begin there is no way to begin the
construction... please help me prevent this beloved family of mine
from becoming homeless!
EL HOGAR DE MAMA WILSON
Para aquellos que me conocen bien, y para los que no me
conocen tanto... creo que la mayoría de vosotros habéis llegado a
conocer un poco los individuos a cuales he llegado a amar en los
últimos 8 años. Muchos de vosotros conocen mi historia de amor con
el pequeño niño llamado Wilson, a quien conocí en el 2007 cuando
estuve trabajando en un hospital de Tanzania. Su madre, Cristina
es una madre de 4, y esposa de un marido abusivo quien vende los
animales de los que vive la familia para comprar alcohol. El año
pasado el techo de su casa empezó a colapsar, pero a tiempo
conseguimos ponerles un techo nuevo antes de que llegaron las
lluvias. Desafortunadamente, ahora es tarde... el techo está en
pedazos, y la casa entera se esta derrumbando. Las lluvias largas,
que duran hasta Abril empiezan este mes, y sabemos muy bien que no
hay manera que su hogar sobreviva esto. Os SUPLICO hacer una
donación, y que me ayudéis construirles un hogar nuevo antes de
que se queden sin casa.
PRIMARY SCHOOL PROJECT
So many people seem to think that 'since it's Africa' we should
just build cheap mud walls and a straw roof .. but this is totally
against our belief. We have built a school of PERFECT construction !
Water resistant, wind resistant.. and time resistant. This is a school
that will be there for many generations to follow.
We believe that building cheaply only becomes more expensive in the
end.. Weather conditions are harsh in this part of Tanzania, and most
Goverment schools are built with very low budgets, therefor most of
them are falling apart, and they are in constant need of repair and maintainance.
You would be proud if you would see the fantastic work that the
Sisters of Saint Ann have done in Monduli Chini ! The Kindergarten is
completed, and running perfectly.
We have already completed the first building of the Primary School.
Now the second primary school building needs to be constructed.. The
double story building you see in the images only has 8 classrooms. And
ofcourse building 2 story's in Tanzania is very expensive, but as our
land is limited this is an investment we have to make.
