Tantra-zawadi: A Ray of Hope Illuminating the Darkness

Online, June 15, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Tantra-zawadi, spoken word poet, author, filmmaker and girls rights activist recently donated lamps to girls in remote rural areas in Zimbabwe. Many girls, unable to purchase candles, have resorted to using firewood for light. The lamps, which are kinetically charged, arrived at a crucial moment, as classes of girls desperately need to read in preparation for final exams.

"It is a blessing to give as I have been given and to bring gifts of light," said Tantra-zawadi. Driven by the desire to make a positive change in the lives of girls throughout the world, Tantra's gift illuminates the darkness, enabling girls to study long after sunset and in the process, open a path to a brighter future for themselves and others.
