Rafiki Village Project Presents: LaRhonda Steele Portland's "First Lady of Soul"
Please join us on June 1st at 5:00pm for a fun-packed evening benefiting the work of
the Rafiki Village Project. Listen to music, dance, eat, drink, socialize with friends, bid
on auction items, gamble on raffle tickets, and learn about the Rafiki Village Project; all
while supporting a good cause.
The Rafiki Village Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. Its mission is to improve health,
increase literacy, and promote economic prosperity in Dumbeta Ward, a rural
community in northcentral Tanzania. Poverty, malnutrition, illiteracy, lack of access to
clean water, and inadequate health care are among the challenges confronting the
community. In the past year, the Rafiki Village Project funded the construction of a birth
center, a new kitchen at a local primary school, and new student toilets. In addition, we
have funded the renovation of classrooms and provided monetary stipends to each of
the public schools and the community health center. To learn more about the Rafiki
Village Project, visit our website at http://www.rafikivillageproject.org.
