Farewell for now, Tanzania

This will be my last newsletter about my recent trip to Tanzania on behalf of the Tanzania Nursing Scholarship Program (TNSP).

Making new friends in Tanzania

I am back in the US now. I was in Tanzania a little over five weeks. I am surprised how tired I was and my recovery has not been as quick as expected.

Determination for education

This newsletter will be somewhat different from my others. I want to focus on the story of Rose Mwagala, my travel companion this year.

Rose graduated from the school of nursing in Mbeya this year, and will take the examination for her nursing license on December 15. At her current age of 28, she is probably the oldest student we have sponsored.
