There's More

On the surface, it appears as though this is more than enough. Plenty. But it was the only source of food I could see for the three families we visited on the quiet edge of the village that day with Arusha-based non-profit BEST (Business and Entrepreneurship Support Tanzania). There was no kitchen. No pantry. No grocery store. Just this basket of tomatoes and an anxious dose of hope that rain would fall on this modest patch of ground to produce the maize.

Shutter Sisters is proud to support our non-profit partner Epic Change and their TweetsGiving project this year – a global celebration of gratitude on November 24-26. Our friends Stacey Monk and Sanjay Patel graciously extended their support to connect us with Mama Lucy Kamptoni and Shepherds Junior School in Arusha, Tanzania. Jen and I are so grateful for the work they are doing and were thrilled to contribute our images and time to produce a video in support of the event. I hope you will get involved and share your gratitude.
