SGCMS is partnering with Emmanuel Primary School in Gamasara, Tanzania to help meet several needs. They currently serve 250 students. Of the 250 students, over half of them are sponsored for $440.00 per year, which pays their tuition. The tuition covers their uniforms, 2 meals a day and helps pay for some supplies. They are in need of money to bring electricity to the school, items to help equip the new kitchen that is being built soon, two Samsung Galaxy tablets. Our school motto is, “Be a Better Me”. We want to help our students, to help students across the world to also be able to exemplify that motto and to have a better life from the ability to obtain an education.
We will be raising money for Emmanuel Primary School through April 14th. Let’s help others have the opportunities that we all have by putting our school motto, “Be a Better Me” to work.
