S. Winny's project

Tanzania Project

June 23, 2022 by Holy Name Monastery Leave a Comment

One of the three Sisters working with our friend S. Winny to establish a K-3 school in an educational opportunity “desert” in Tanzania.  Pictured is their “classroom.”  S. Winny lived with us when she was attending Saint Leo University.  Pray for the success of the project.  Throughout the June and July our Sisters will be supporting the effort through personal contributions matched with a donation for our community resources.  You are invited to join us in this effort.

 

Periodically the Benedictine Sisters of FL solicit contributions to an almsgiving project that they have discerned to support.  During June and July, they will be making offerings from their individual allowances (ranging up to $70 monthly) to support a K-3 project in Tanzania.  We’ll be matching it with a contribution from our community collective funds.   The initiative is under the leadership of S. Winny Kalamira who resided with us when she was on scholarship at Saint Leo University.  Sister is now superior of the new community of three in an area deprived of educational opportunities.  We are proud to promote her cause.  Won’t you join us in this effort.

To make a contribution, write check payable to Benedictine Sisters of FL – note for S. Winny Project – we’ll send lump-sum donation to the project.  Or you may donate through our website (link below).  Be sure to select the  “Tanzania” designation.
