Kitchen to be proud of!

The Zamtan Kafwa finally have their long dreamed of kitchen!  They have made-do for years with a little make-shift shelter that resembled a sieve when it rained.  That shelter was torn down last month to erect the new cookshack and the discarded boards are now temporarily piled in front.  The blue pipe structure to the left is the conveniently located water tower which brings water right to the door making it readily available to cook the porridge for the 300 appreciative students.

 Jackson Manjai, our Zamtan treasurer, is proudly posing in front of the newly completed cookshack.  As the on-site overseer for construction of the cookshack, he found this project even more challenging than the classroom blocks.  Workmen skilled in making thatched roofs do not live in the immediate area nor do the special thatch grasses grow nearby.  But Jackson found both the workmen and the grasses and was able to bring the cookshack to reality.
