I read in an article for Green Village this quote "Haba na haba Huijaza Kibaba" Little by little, all things are possible. This is what is happening with Green Village. I have been aware of this project from start and have watched it grow. It is strongly growing through strong committment and the love individuals have for families, mainly children. If you would go on this site it started from just a small auction in a small restaurant and through this, has provided villagers with fresh water and trash bins for recyling with just a little more they are reaching out to teach these people how to be independent to help them selves and their families to survive and also how to live in a save green world.

I think this project merits support from donors looking to provide help to people who are engaged in grassroots work to help people in developing countries, one person and one village at a time.

A non-profit motivated by passion and administered with the needs and involvement of the people it serves always at the forefront. I have complete confidence that donations to GVGF fully support equipment and activities that will directly help to build strong, informed, environmentally sound communities in Tanzania.

This project is truly grassroots in the very best sense of the concept. It grows from and is embedded in the culture, it realizes its power through collaboration and cooperation, and it seeks transformation through community engagement. Firmly rooted in the understanding that small changes can have a large and consequential impact, GVGF pursues a big vision with a big heart. Only with regard to funding is its footprint small.

This project is an example of what a few very good people who believe they can make a difference in the world can do when they are truly committed and persevere.

What a wonderful cause, to enable people to improve their quality of life. We take so much for granted...turning on a faucet to get clean drinking water. Clean drinking water is just one of the many enrichments that Green Village provides.

This is an amazing project that assists those within Tanzania to gain the skills, information, and support to gain control of harmful environmental pollution, and make a change in their communities, resources, and livlihoods. The participatory approach that Green Village - Green Future uses fosters sustainability and community pride.

This project has huge potential because of Amy's dedication to the people of Tanzania and their environment. I am more than happy to sponsor the project as I know the money will go exactly where it is supposed to.

This organization came out of personal committment to the environment, economic challenges and the health and well-being in a deeply challenged region. The way funds and resources ae maximized - for instance - the smallest donations bring clean drinkng water to an entire family - provides donors with "instant gratification" and reward.
