Hope Story
Tanzania
The Amani Primary School was founded in 2008 to meet the physical, spiritual, and educational needs of the Digo people. The project began as a partnership between a Canadian school teacher serving with Africa Inland Mission (AIM) and a local Tanzanian pastor/couple who established a church in the region.
Amani has now been active for over ten years and offers over 300 vulnerable children access to an otherwise inaccessible high-quality education. Today, based on national grade 7 examination results, the school ranks among the top 10% of all schools in Tanzania, including private schools and those schools in large cities.

Kenya
This is a Canadian Non-profit Incorporation. They are striving to empower local orphans, children, women, and men with love through education and basic living necessities. They are working to create sustainable ministries and programs in Kenya that includes supplying school supplies, hygiene products, water collection and filters. They are also working on family reconciliation and education programs, and this is just not for the kids, but for all ages.
India
We have planted 6 churches and built a Children’s Home and help support an outreach program. But because of the political situation, this is all that we can share of what we have done and are doing in India.
