We had a video call between Seattle ASP students and Ailanga students on March 15. Much of the discussion, as requested by the Ailanga students, was how countries were handling the COVID pandemic. This included the effects on schools (Ailanga classes are in person whereas most Seattle schools are on-line), testing, masks, and vaccines. We are hoping to have another call sometime in May.

We recently received an update from Lydia, the headmistress at Ailanga, and are thrilled to see that the lab is being put to good use!
"Last year the Contractor worked so hard to keep his promise so that Biology lab would be used for the National Exams and I am happy to report that he made it possible and the tables were ready, gas and water installations were done just a few days before the exams began."

Another school year has started at Ailanga, another year of partnership with our Meru, TZ friends.
Ailanga Sunday at Faith Lutheran Church was a huge success! Thanks to all of those who participated!
