Why it Matters Published: 28 Jun 2018

The image at the bottom was, until last month, a home - not to a family of chickens or even a couple of dogs, but rather a widow and her five children. Sitting in the shadow of Kilimanjaro on the outskirts of Moshi (Tanzania), this is typical of the poverty in which many we help, are living.   

The image at the top is their new home, built by volunteers from Vine Trust with help from our partners and friends in Tanzania. We may not be able to change the world, but we can certainly make a world of difference to those we help.

Over the summer we have 5 schools in Tanzania engaged in building homes like these and you can read all about their experiences on our Blog Page     

If you feel inspired to join one of our home building expeditions, then there are still a few places left on our October 2018 trip -  Apply Now.  Or if you want to get your school, church group or office involved in something like this then please get in touch, EMAIL your interest to the office and we'll get back to you.
