Maggie's Trip to Tanzania 

June 2016

We are delighted to report that Maggie has safely returned from her three week, field trip to Samuye. Maggie had a very busy schedule, with many important meetings, regarding the Ibingo (Sashita’s project in Samuye). We have yet to hear from Maggie, as she is pretty exhausted from her travels, however we will update you all in the very near future.
