Meeting Jacob made my day, we shared stories and laughed

The red fox greeted me three days straight, but would not let me get close.

Description

I am participating in the 2022 TEMBO Serengeti Challenge to raise funds and awareness for women and girls in Tanzania.  I will be moving a total of 60km / 100km across Serengeti National Park in Tanzania (virtually of course).  

TEMBO has been tremendously successful at giving girls the tools to enter school (and stay in school), to succeed at their studies, and to graduate, often a first in their families. TEMBO also has supported these girls with vocational training to turn that education into careers and opportunities to build their communities.  

Now more than ever we need your help to continue our work. COVID continues to impact how we work in Longido.  As of March 2022 only 4.7% of the Tanzanian population has had a single vaccine.  That means the pandemic is still a real challenge for TEMBO as we want to continue to help as many as possible.
