Over the past quarter, there have been exciting events happening for the Wazee, the home and everyone involved!
First, African Impact celebrated 5 years in Moshi and what better way to celebrate than at Wazee! There was attendace from Moshi Municipal Head of Community Development and Social Welfare as well as over 100 community members and students from across all projects! What a celebration we had!
Next on the the list is one of our most exciting updates for our amazing Wazee. On Friday, local physiotherapist Shadrack, came all the way from KCMC (Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre), a hospital in town, to thoroughly assess each and every wazee member. Joined by Sarah, Amos and physiotherapist student and volunteer Tom, they spent over half an hour with each wazee member testing their mobility, assessing the environment they’re sleeping in and getting their full medical histories. Together with Shadrack, Tom will create individual plans for each wazee and information sheets to help guide future volunteers through the plans. We’re really excited for the next couple of months at the Wazee.
Finally, 20 Wazee are still receving their seasonal fruit 4 times a week thanks to our generous reoccuring donors like yourself!
As always, we cannot thank everyone enough for your involvement with the Wazee. We look forward to creating individualized plans for each member and sharing these plans with you in our next update!
