AMRMF 'Making a difference'!
Some of the Masai children that attend Tarangire Primary School in Tanzania, Africa. AMRMF donated 82 school desks, 3 teacher's desks, 2 commercial smokeless cookers, and a set of commercial cooking pots in 2012! The smokless cookers use only 3 pieces of wood per day, and effectively eliminate smoke and monoxide emissions. Since AMRMF's donations, the Masai have commenced building a thatched cafeteria for their school lunch program, and were actually making the mud bricks when Ricky was there. School representatives report that enrollment is up over 100 students since the desks arrived! The teachers are pleased with their locked drawers, and the children thrilled to no longer have to sit
4 and 5 students at a desk! A magic moment seeing the many happy kid's faces!

In January 2014, AMRMF donated the funds to sponsor the 'Happy Readers' program at St. Mary's Primary School, situated in Lukosi, near Hwang in Zimbabwe, Africa. 'Happy Readers' educational books is a complete educational program created specifically for the children of Africa to help overcome reading barriers arising from the lack of appropriate and affordable reading materials. 'Happy Readers' uses familiar African animals as characters, and stories are set in recognizable rural and urban African locations.
All the students and teaching faculty extend their warm thanks to the AMRMF family for this contribution to the school, and the children's educational needs.
