The work of Build Africa, whether through improvements to the physical infrastructure or through education and support, is truly transformational.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>This work changes the lives of impoverished children and in turn changes communities too, not just for the short term but through education for future generations. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">Please support us in this wonderful cause and make the hours of training we are doing and our eventual ascent and descent of this awesome mountain in the heart of Africa an achievement never to be forgotten.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">Please give generously!!<br><br>Bill and Mike </span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
