This March I was in Africa to photograph a girl’s school in Morogoro, Tanzania for Forgirlsake and Nurturing Minds. I spent a few days at Sega Secondary School for Girls, shooting class portraits, the classrooms, activities, teachers, and the rhythm of daily life. What I saw and experienced was enlightening and uplifting, and has left a deep impression on me. I was in a place that can only be described as an oasis of learning and tranquility. The girls are happy and friendly, the teachers are devoted, and the entire project is the collective effort of many inspired individuals who have made an incredible effort.
Enjoy the photographs…and if you feel the urge, contact me to make a donation to Forgirlsake. Your money will go towards educating young women and thereby changing their communities (and the world) for the better.
