As a result of the help and donations from volunteers and other community members, our fundraisers were more successful than we could have imagined. Through this blog, we will keep you updated on our journey as we put all of your donations to good use.

Busy Bee’s- HELP NEEDED


Katie and I have been busy bee’s the past few days working on documents to help improve the school. Using our experience excel, we have been analyzing teacher’s salaries and the school time table. From my past experience, this process is usually a nightmare so it is nice to help our administration with this task. We are also producing school flyers, brochures and a school magazine to help with advertising  The paper donated with the sea container and our skills in design and English will ensure this undertaking is done quickly, professionally and much cheaper than if the school were to hire out the work. We also plan to share these documents with Donor’s so they can see the many things FANAKA has to offer our students.
In additional to these documents, Katie and I have been busy gathering footage for the documentary we want to put together. Some of you may remember when we showed our last documentary at the Beaver Dam High School.  I would like to make a similar event as well as show American students, clubs and other organizations of our work in Tanzania. Unfortunately, I do not have any experience or skills in this area so if you know anyone with imovie or movie making experience please send them our way!

 NEEDED: ANYONE WILLING TO DONATE TIME, SOFTWARE AND/OR SKILLS TO CREATE A DOCUMENTARY. Internships and independent study credits available. Please contact me at cassie.parkhurst@yahoo.com
