FREINDS OF MUSOMA CHARITY WORK

  MUSOMA
Is a vibrant place on the shores of lake Victoria, in Tanzania, Africa  its population (2billion) is about the same  as calderdale, it has a small airport, the electricity is not to be relied on, as frequent black outs occur
resources are stretched noting is wasted, everything is re-used, dead cars are striped to the last nut and bolt. 

like all other African towns disease is a big problem. lake Victoria contains billhatzia which makes you blind, the mosquitoes carry malaria, in the west we have drugs freely available to cure all these diseases,  
but the only way we can help the 50% of africans with aids, is by educating the next generation
