To provide a Lifetime of opportunity for children with a physical disability as a contributing member of their community.
CHALLENGE
Life in Tanzania is difficult at best for majority of people. For the disabled child, life seems hopeless. Many disabled children die at a young age because they are so vulnerable in an unforgiving environment. Historic attitude in Tanzania of ignoring the handicapped and the lack of academic opportunity for them.
OPPORTUNITY
Assist in evaluating and developing techniques and tools to adapt and modify farm equipment to accommodate various physical limitations. Study agriculture areas least friendly to the handicapped. Create externship at Faraja School to create collaborative solutions and promote agriculture in Tanzania, Africa. Publish successes internationally.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
In most of the developing world, the physically disabled have essentially been excluded from the Agricultural Industry. Modifications in equipment and farming techniques can open the door globally for the handicapped to participate in many aspects of the agricultural economy. These developments would be nothing short of revolutionary and are an important by-product of the work being done at Faraja.
