During Fradreck and Sam Mujurus’ US tour (until September 19th) we have a special offer of free gifts when you support the work in the Dambatsoko region, being done by the Jangano team directed by Fradreck. For $200 you receive Fradreck’s personal deze, which he has used in many countries around the world since 1996 as he has been sharing the traditional mbira music from Zimbabwe. (This is a limited time and incredibly special offer.) For $100 you receive a Mwoyochena kuZimbabwe CD or an Ancient Ways t-shirt. For $25 you receive a gift card of your choice. All proceeds are benefiting Jangano. Email us at gogreen@ancient-ways.org or call 541-259-HOPE or 877-TATENDA of your interest right away!

Zimfest is being held this year in Moscow, Idaho on the northern edge of the University of Idaho Campus from August 2nd-5th (see www.zimfest.org ) with the Marketplace at Ghormley Park. We will be bringing the hand-crafts from the villages, CDs and T-shirts, as well as providing information about our work in Zimbabwe, specifically our health and pure water well building focus (see www.ancient-ways.org or call 877-TATENDA with questions about our programs and services).
We run this booth with the help of volunteers and can’t do it without you! Please let us know how you can be involved. Just click the link at the top, but do so just as soon as possible so we can make plans.
Sundborn Children’s House, the Montessori school in Albany, Oregon, is holding their annual benefit and silent auction on April 14th from 6 to 10 p.m. More details about this event including information about the great food and beverage layout for the evening, where and how to pre-purchase tickets, and this year’s focus can be found at www.spring.sundborn.org.
We are inviting you because of our partnership with Sundborn, with whom we built the Nhimbe preschool in Mhondoro, Zimbabwe, where we have been nurturing more than 80 young minds each year since 2002. They have made significant contributions to support this school annually since we began this collaboration, and continue to send donations and special materials for the teachers and children.
We invite you to this event and hope you can make it. If you are unable but would like to support the efforts you can make a secure donation online on their website instead. Whatever you can do is greatly appreciated.
Ancient Ways will be there with our table of hand-crafted items from the villages, as well as providing entertainment to start the evening. Muti Marimba, a 6-piece ensemble, will be playing the uplifting music from Zimbabwe. We look forward to seeing you there.
Thank you for passing this information on to your friends, family and co-workers!
