Safi's Post-Secondary Students & COVID-19 Update May 3, 2020
A gathering of Safi students in Arusha TZ Feb 2020
In March, schools in Tanzania closed. At that time Safi School Project was supporting 83 students in post-secondary education and was assisting in the support of 13 students continuing in university education. These students were attending schools selected for them by the government many kilometers from their home villages in the Arusha area. All of those students come from disadvantaged families who need our continued financial support. Safi provided the financial help of getting those students to their homes.
This cannot be the end of the story. Safi does not know when TZ schools will reopen but Safi plans to be ready to help our students with the costs of going back to their schools when they do.
Some of you have already asked how you may help. You can donate via PayPal on Safi’s Donate page or via snail mail using the form found on the donate page; through Thrivent Choice Dollars, or The Benevity Community Impact Fund, or WA Combined Fund Drive (Safi is #1465786) or through your local payroll deduction.
The Safi Board gives a big THANK YOU to those who have already sent sponsorship money in late 2019 or early 2020. Those full sponsorships ($700) or partial sponsorships (any amount) are what keeps our students in schools.
In Swahili, Safi means clean, good, pure. The students have told us that we have a Safi Heart. They say that they too want a Safi Heart.
