Tanzania Drought 2017

'Voices from the Nations' have been partnering with the Gogo people of central Tanzania since 2003. Through recording their music, the CD 'Sing to the Well' was released. Funds from this project have repaired a well and built a medical dispensary. <br /> <br />Sadly, the lack of rain at the end of 2016 has caused the failure of crops and in the last few days, even cattle are dying. <br /> <br />Our contact Seth has just visited Mnase and the surrounding villages, speaking with leaders and people in the community. He says "I moved around the Villages to see, visit and interview many families and leaders especially the very poor ones, I witnessed some of them leaking tears and losing hope. It is so painful!" <br /> <br />Last year through your help, we managed to raise enough money to send 2 trucks of maize to support the village of Mnase. This was incredible and helped save lives. <br /> <br />Together we can make a diference - not only for Mnase village but the surrounding villages too. <br /> <br />We are looking at sending money to buy maize before the prices soar - and we need your help - if 1000 people gave £25 each we would be able reach our target and send maize not only to Mnase but all the surrounding villages. We so appreciate your help - Asante sana. <br /> <br />In the UK you can give via https://my.give.net/tanzaniadrought2017 and outside the Uk via Paypal - voicesfromthenations@hotmail.com
