  • Operation Bootstrap Africa Dignity Fall 2016 New Nurses for Tanzania!
    Operation Bootstrap Africa Dignity Fall 2016 New Nurses for Tanzania! The first students have graduated from the new Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre School of Nursing in Arusha, Tanzania. This school was the dream of many and your gifts made it a reality! Each one of these young people had the cost of their training reduced by a $1,000 annual OBA scholarship. These new nurses will provide patient care in hospitals, dispensaries and clinics across Tanzania, helping to meet the critical shortage of nurses in the country. Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre School of Nursing First Graduation - August 20, 2016 What a wonderful and blessed day we had on the very first graduation of our ALMC School of Nursing. It was an amazing and historic event as the first graduation included three separate classes. The festivities were honored by our Bishop, Rev. Solomon Massangwa, serving as guest of honor. Dr. Kibira, the director of the ALMC Training Centre, welcomed the crowd and Prof. Jacobson shared the history of the dream and the miracles of the school coming into being. There were three classes; the first class of 19 which had begun in March of 2014, the second class of 22 which started in September of 2014, and a third class which undertook a one-year course in Community Health Technician training and graduated 37 students. The complete set of exam results was only available for the first class who had an amazing success rate of 99.9% in the exams! While we wait for national comparisons to arrive, we are confident that we will be one of the top nursing schools in the country.
