Hostel Construction Fully Funded! Oyay!

Dear Friends and Family-
I was elated to discover after climbing Kili that the hostel construction funds had been fully raised! Wow. Sina maneno (I have no words). I can't imagine better news to come home to. Needless to say, I am extremely grateful for all of you who supoported this endeavor. I hear Peace Corps will be sending me a list of everyone who contributed, so be on the lookout for a thank you note from TZ. I will be sure to keep you all updated on the project's progress.

Much appreciation from me and all the girls of Mahongole ward,
Tait

Tait at the top! Well done. Love the fact you did it. Your quote "the purpose of life is to live it" is spot on. Come see some of the inspiring work in Tanzania by Global Partners for Development at www.gpfd.org. I'm sure they'd love to get your insight.
