 While
the cultures of different countries vary in myriad ways, they also
contain many shared values. Among these is the universal understanding
that education is a core component of healthy development. Tujatane
is providing an education to 116 children whose ages range from two
to fifteen years. All students come from low income families.
 The children of Tujatane typically live with their families in mud
huts. They have no running water and limited access to electricity.
The huts are comprised of one or two rooms which are used as bedrooms
for parents and children and a living room for all. The kitchen is
an outside charcoal burner. The shower is a grass wall to which the
family brings a bucket for washing themselves.
 Through education, Tujatane becomes the starting point for change.
The children and their parents understand that education will bring
opportunity. You can help to make that opportunity happen.
By sponsoring a child at Tujatane, you bring assurance of education
to her and her family. Sponsoring costs
only US$58 per month.
 Sponsorship brings many rewards. You will have the wonderful pleasure
of getting to know your child through email or traditional correspondence,
which we encourage. You'll be able to follow your child's progress
through the school through updates each term. And you will know that
you have provided the cornerstone for the improvement of living conditions
for the people of Tongabezi.
