The project is moving along - as we say in Ghana: small small. Slowly but surely we are moving. As you can see from the above pictures, the school finished the foundation. Then, once I had the cash in hand we started building up from there. At the moment, the walls are built up to the window level. I spent about $2,500 on ALL the cement for the project (which we needed to buy now as prices tend to rise pretty rapidly in such commodities) and another $2,100 on iron rods and the roofing sheets. What is happening is that the headmaster comes down to Tamale to meet me, we buy the necessary materials, he sends them up and gets to work, then I come up and check on things when I'm able. I was just up there for Christmas and took the pictures you see above and to the right. At this pace, I hope we can be finished by the end of February! Expect another update in a week or two!
