IT’S A GREAT DAY TO GIVE!!!
In just one week I will be running the half marathon with @TFFT, and after a few days of rest, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise both funds and awareness for The Foundation For Tomorrow. The Foundation For Tomorrow is an organization based in Tanzania focused on improving the lives of orphan and vulnerable children through access to quality education. TFFT has recently opened a state-of-the-art Learning Centre that will serve learners in diverse ways and provide educational opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach. To ensure that the Learning Centre is successful in serving this community, our team is hoping to raise $30,000 to install solar panels on the new building. Tanzania's grid power relies heavily on hydroelectricity, and when there is drought, there are national power cuts on a weekly basis. The installation of solar panels will provide a reliable, sustainable, and eco-friendly energy solution that will create an environment where power cuts do not impede the incredible work of staff and beneficiaries. TFFT believes it is important as an organization to have a low environmental impact, especially in a country that is disproportionately impacted by climate change. So, to both power the building and empower deserving individuals, I am asking local businesses, friends, family, and anyone I meet on the street to please consider helping me make this happen! It's a great day to give and every dollar counts!
