In the summer of 2010 I went to Tanzania, Africa for 2 weeks with my family.  At first I was amazed by the wildlife and animals in the Serengeti.  After taking a trip to the poverty stricken towns of Tanzania I saw how those children and families live.  I immediately wondered about their education, social life, and if it was at all similar to mine.  After meeting with Meghann Gunderman the frontrunner of this organization I became intrigued.  I love the idea of empowering young minds and giving the gift of education, which many of us take for granted.  I soon realized that my 16th birthday celebration provided me an opportunity to raise funds for this charity with the help of my friends and family; I hope you agree with my choice.

The Foundation for Tomorrow a US 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, works to improve the quality of education in Tanzania, Africa.  This foundation also provides scholarships to orphaned or abandoned children.
