The Mazingira Monkey Project: One Man's Quest to Save the Environment

HeyMissK
This is the story of a man in Tanzania who is saving the environment by collecting plastic bags from the trash and using them to stuff toy animals for children.

He not only supports his wife and four children by doing this but he also helps homeless children in Arusha by buying them food when they help him collect plastic bags.

He calls it the Mazingira Monkey Project because "mazingira" means "environment" in Swahili and he is very passionate about saving the environment.

A great example of the power of one person to make a positive impact in their community!
