"I can see Tanzania change with these boys"
Sister Margie was recently interviewed at Dodoma Boystown by a local news outlet in Tanzania.
Johari News came to Dodoma Boystown to learn about the programme and see how it operates. They also briefly interviewed one of our students, Baraka, from Manyara, a region near Kilimanjaro in North West Tanzania.
Sister Margie spoke about how the sisters were invited to set up Dodoma Boystown, for the poorest boys in the country, the importance of vocational training in their education programme, and the family type structure adopted at the school for giving the boys a good start in life and the comfort of a home away from home.
