We hope you and your families are well and able to take the necessary precautions to stay safe from coronavirus. The impact of COVID-19 is being felt around the world and because we know you care about KiliTech and our work in Tanzania, we thought you would appreciate a quick update on how we are dealing with COVID-19.
Working with the Arumeru district and their COVID-19 task force, KiliTech is working hard to deliver thousands of masks and hand-washing buckets to help families protect themselves against the spread of the disease.
Working with the Arumeru district commissioner, COVID-19 task force, and ward counselors, we are delivering two thousand masks, and one thousand hand-washing buckets to hospitals, orphanages, churches, mosques, and communities with people at high-risk.
If you wish to make a donation each cloth mask costs sixty-five cents (including labor and materials), a box of fifty hospital masks is $35, and the cost for one hundred buckets with taps for hand-washing is $560.
Tuko pamoja. We are together.
Kuwa na afya! Be safe!
Great Q3 update your overview of progress and https://www.docsoutsidethebox.us goals was clear and motivating. I also read a related nonprofit snapshot on a docsoutsidethebox blog that was insightful.
This was a powerful and inspiring post. The way you explained Kilitech’s efforts and the real impact on local communities was both clear and motivating. I recently read a comparable perspective on community resilience while browsing https://www.rosedalewellness.com/, and it helped deepen my appreciation for initiatives like this. Thank you for highlighting such meaningful work and presenting it so clearly.
