Beds for African Students
Donation protected
Christian Bible School in Tanzania
The goal with this gofundme is to provide beds for 28 students active in biblical and ministerial education in the Singida region of Tanzania, Africa.
Missionary and Teacher Matt Derocher has been going twice a year to Tanzania since 2011 to teach the Bible and train people who have a desire to work in Christian ministry.
In April of 2014, seven students received diplomas for completing the course, and there are almost thirty more that are one semester away from graduating. There are at least thirty more people that have applied and several dozen that have shown interest for when we open registration again.
We have found a new location for the Bible school much closer to the homes of most of the current students. This move is in the best interest of the students and the Bible school, but it also means we are starting completely over with furniture and other supplies--the most urgent need is beds.
14 Bunk Beds = $1750 ($125 each)
28 Mattresses = $700 ($25 each)
Delivery & Bank Fees = $550
Asante sana! (That's Swahili for thank you very much.)
