First Dental Visit — May 2019
Class 1 and 2 took a trip into Arusha for a dental visit to Divinegrace Dental Clinic. This was the FIRST time any of these 5- to 8-year-old school children had met a dentist!
A toothbrush and toothpaste was given to each child when back to the school. What a wonderful experience for these children!

With the help of my family, friends, and some hard-working villagers in Kisongo, Tanzania, I founded a non-profit organization, Heart To Care Tanzania, to raise money to build the Bethany Pre and Primary School for underprivileged children in Kisongo. The school is officially registered with the government of Tanzania. I began fund raising efforts in 2017 and, within three months, local villagers constructed the first school classrooms. By January 2018, the doors opened to 32 children.
