The AIDSTanzania team spent a fantastic week and half living at the United African Alliance Community Center in the Imbaseni Village outside of Arusha. During our time there, we held HIV/AIDS workshops for women, men, and children, and sponsored a free HIV testing day. Overall, it was a huge success; many members of the community were able to come into the Center and get tested, ask questions, and even participate in some fun music and dancing afterward. We made lots of friends in the Imbaseni village, and had some experiences I’m sure none of us will ever forget.
Over the next few weeks, each of our team members who went on the trip will be posting a short personal reflection of their time in Tanzania, so keep checking back for more updates!
