Powering Potential installs solar-powered computer labs with technology training at schools in Tanzania.
The Banjika school in Karatu Tanzania. The people there are so special, so full of appreciation. In Swahili there is no word for "stranger" because the people don't live with that concept. I think that says a lot about their culture.
I would love to see some of the values of the Tanzanians spread throughout the world: cooperation over competition, community over the individual, modesty over pride, and spirituality over materiality.
