Since 2005 the Western Iowa Synod–ELCA and the Southern Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania have worked together to provide secondary education for young women at the Igumbilo Lutheran Girls School. This video illustrates the impact this school has had in the lives of young Tanzanian women and invites continued financial support for scholarships the enable many of them to improve their lives.
On behalf of the girls and administration of Igumbilo, we share their sincere and heartfelt sentiments of gratitude and praise to God for your accompaniment!
