Volunteers
TLOMA PRIMARY SCHOOL has more than 650 students. There are usually 3 or 4 children to one desk, and 4 children to one textbook. 40 children share one latrine. Needless to say there is a great need for additional facilities. The above needs do not apply only to Tloma Primary School.
All the schools we have assessed are in dire need of basic facilities – especially textbooks, desks and toilets. With this program volunteers will assist with the final assembly of more desks for the schools in are area.
In celebration of the 40th year anniversary of Gibb’s Farm
we assist visiting carpentry volunteers for our community schools.
