Silembe, Zambia | HOFO Update

We heard from our team in Zambia over the weekend:

I hadn't sent pictures of the cushions. Olick is gaining weight.

The plaster is looking better in this house compared to the 1st.

I bought ceiling materials for this house. I think the inside doors and solar are the only things yet to be bought, plus paint and furniture.

The finished portion of the wall is too dark in this picture to see clearly. It's looking good.

The iron gates and metal doors were not ready on Saturday due to Zesco (the local power company) outages. I felt I needed to be on site to check the cooking grill work and at the same time deliver a load of materials. Comrade is the one working on the grill and he took off Friday, so he had only done a little by Saturday morning. I bought a load of cement and rebar. The brick layers should be able to go straight from the plaster to the foundation of the 3rd house. Not much more in terms of materials are needed to get the 3rd house to roof level.
