Tawawami Celebrates its One Year Anniversay

The Tawawami Education Project, a non-governmental organization, where I teach math and provide assistance in writing grant proposals, celebrated its one year anniversary at its location in Ilemela.  The celebration also recognized the efforts of the students who participated in this year's program.  Each student was awarded with a new writing tablet and pencil.  Additional gifts were added by parents of the students.  All enjoyed the music, the food prepared by parents and the project's board members, and the speeches from invited honored guests.
