BHS CAS Tanzania Project Benefit Dinner
Saturday, June 10, 7 p.m.

This summer, 11 students and 2 teachers from BHS, Communications Arts
and Sciences (CAS), will spend a month in a small village in
Tanzania, Africa.  They will help build a new schoolroom, tutor and
coach in a village school and work on HIV/AIDS education.  Most are
paying their own way, but they are raising funds so that a diverse
group of students can go, and so that they can bring school and
medical supplies with them.  Please come to a dinner party to support
this project.    

The cuisine will be authentic Tanzanian.  The party will be in the
large, contemporary art-filled home of an East Bay benefactor.  The
hosts and servers will be the teachers and students going to Africa,
and their parents.  The entertainment will be BHS Afro-Haitian
dancers, a showing of photos of the village  and a Silent Auction
including African artwork. Wine and beer will be available.

Tickets are being sold in advance for $35 ($15 for children under
14).  Call, email or send a check to Bob Laird, 2322 Carleton,
Berkeley, 94702, 548-6274, boblaird at sbcglobal.net

Development Group/CAS Africa).  If you can't attend, you can send a
donation to the address above.
