Its About Time building international solidarity, with Tanzania
The brick donor wall has been completed and I am happy to attach a
picture of your brick. You will always be a part of this library and
will also be remembered for your generosity and interest in this
project. The committee decided that the appropriate way to honor all of
the generous donors was to construct a brick "pillar" which actually
supports the building. It is a visual reminder to everyone who visits
the library that the people who donated the money for our renovation
actually made the library possible. We are proud of our accomplishment
in this project and hope that you know you were an important part of its
success.
These bricks may seem to be merely symbolic, but the truth is that the
donor wall is a physical feature of the library and everyone who comes
to visit stops and reads the names. People here are not only fascinated
by the concept of the "buy a brick" fundraiser, but are genuinely
touched at the level of support that comes from our friends and family
abroad.
On behalf of the library committee and the Jifundishe board, I want to
thank you for your help and support.
