Saved Dreams

We decided to start “Saved Dreams” while being childcare- and teaching-volunteers in the “Power of the Children” school located in Arusha, Tanzania. Here, we have witnessed the children’s and teacher’s everyday life and have found it difficult at best, compared to western standards. The teachers are trying to pass on their knowledge to (sometimes 30) children in 3 by 2 meters classrooms without notebooks or proper ventilation.

The partial solution to that has been a new school for the children located 20 kilometres from the center of Arusha. We say partial because the school as you can see in the pictures needs to be thoroughly renovated to be ready to host children and teachers. Furthermore, there is no (free) way for transporting the children to and from the school and the small number of teachers are mostly voluntarily working there, giving up their free time to teach the next generation of Tanzanians. The above reasons are why we need your help however big or small, everything counts.
