Wild Hope in Tanzania

I just got an email today from Lisa Borden, with Wild Hope in Tanzania. It sounds like a neat group of folks and I wanted to share over the next few days about what they're doing. She writes...

"Thanks for your interest in what we are doing. We are also excited to see micro-loans making a difference in people's lives.

"We are a very new organization with just 2 families here in TZ. Both of our families have long-term experience in East Africa, but this is a new venture and we are very grassroots. We seriously have just a little handful of micro-loans out and we are learning as we go. We're involved in other things as well. Following our relational lines, we have ties with some schools and local churches. We believe in education as a big key so anything we can do to bless a school is good with us. With local churches we are involved in periodic leadership development stuff. We are excited if we can encourage people to authenticity and depth in their walk with God."

More to come from Lisa, next week!
