Pink Pig
Appeal 
Disabled Children's Home
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Park Lodge International and the Golden Valley First Responder Unit with many others have made a difference.
HELP STILL NEEDED
This was the film made for the original appeal in 2005 (certainly worth watching), as you can see below, the generator is in position and the appeal was very successful. We are now looking at getting a 20' freight container which will be filled with IT equipment and donated building materials from UK to Dar. In October with the help of West Midlands Fire Service a new IT teaching centre will be built to enable the youngsters to gain some good qualifications to enable them to get employment. It is difficult for these young people to find any employment opportunities, everything we can do to help is a bonus.
If you can help in any way, please email us on info@rowlstone.org
Thank you

Not only is it a difficult task to get 189 children to bed in the dark but the manufacture of artificial limbs also stops when there is no power - and sometimes they are without power for 18 hours a day because of supply problems. That has all changed.

Wherever in the world - children and fire engines
The big hand over officially - The Acting British High Commissioner to Tanzania and the Officer Commanding Salvation Army Tanzania
From a Pink Pig being kidnapped from an ambulance at Craven Arms and taken to Tanzania through to the generosity of AP Power and Plustronics all the people involved have made the idea a reality.
