Mission Tanzania

An outreach ministry of Saint Barbara Greek Orthodox Church

Help us help them

It is a story heard too often: African communities without churches, schools, or basic healthcare. We hope to change that for one community in Tanzania - a village without a well, a school, a clinic, or a church.

Help us help them. Your help will dig a well for clean water, help fund a school to teach children, build a clinic, and stock it with medicines. Your help will build a chapel to serve as the cornerstone of a community.

Together we can do this.

We are blessed to live in this great land. Let’s share our blessings. Help us to help them.

 

Our wish list:

Paish House with Meeting Rooms - $25,000

Well-Drilling Equipment - $50,000

Funding for School - $54,000

Clinic - $37,000

Medical Equipment and Supplies - $34,000

 

Donations are still being accepted.  Please send checks to our address on the home page.  Make checks payable to "Saint Barbara Greek Orthodox Church" and indicate "Mission Tanzania" on the memo line.
