Hi friends i just arrived in Babati and
i'm here for a reason
i'm gonna visit the school of my friend Silver
who founded the primary school when he was 21 and
six months ago he attended my Goal Marathon
[Music]
Before the Goal Marathon, his school had
50 students and after the Goal Marathon the school
became 3 times bigger and now it has 150 students
[Music]
I met him half of the year ago. He found my articles
and started reading my website and then he joined my Goal Marathon
My school is founded in Tanzania northern
part of Tanzania in a place called Babati influence the
growth of the school has been part of the government
we normally take kids from poor backgrounds
but because our school is out of town it's in the village a rural setting
we take kids from poor backgrounds and our motto is "Home of Success" we just want
the kids to get the best education and one of our goals is to
have the best for one of the best schools in Tanzania
Welcome! this is our office you are very welcome everyone is welcome
to this school our school is the boarding school that
means we get kids from different regions and they stay around here so when you
come inside here welcome here this is the dormitory
for boys, the boys stay here.
well I saw big changes after the Goal Marathon
before the goal marathon, my school was just moving on that's very smoothly but not
at a big pace but after the goal marathon my mind
changed the way I think the way I do my things
my daily routine just has changed and everything just became perfect now
before the Goal Marathon I had about 50 pupils in my
school but currently, there are over 150 pupils
and that's within a very short time because i joined
in the summer of 2020 so you can see it's just in a short time
and that influence just flew into the kids into the teachers
when they saw me doing things in a different way
they learned so the thing just moved into a big population
and has made very big changes i'm very grateful
this is our farm as i've told you we are we have cattle around so
our cows are here if you can have a closer look
this is a baby cow our cow just gave a birth a few weeks ago about two weeks ago
so uh here it is very beautiful as you can see it
from there and the mother is just there i think you can spot the mother
among the two and we have in our farm we have some fruits
some mango fruits some guavas and some avocados and some lemons there
we have the well they dug a well there there is water
inside so sometimes you just get water from
there and feed them you can come on where would be stepped
for the kids, I think as you can see here our kids here normally eat grains
what we call maize and beans this is the sample beans as you can see
the kids eat this this is the dinning so when it's time
for food they sit here here
and have meals well welcome to the kitchen
and see how the food is prepared we have two books around there is this
one yeah you can see the food they prepare tomatoes and
I couldn't believe how the goal marathon could
change so many lives and I could see all those kids being happy in the school
getting the education and it's it's it affected the life of
100 kids and it's just the beginning it's gonna grow
and become bigger and i'm very happy to be
a part of your mission a part of your journey
because what you do is truly inspiring you cannot
run a school without the passion Welcome to class 3 this is
Mr John is the class teacher of
class 3 and today has been teaching them about science
what I started doing differently is the time management
basically has been very important and changed
previously I'll do some things not on time but after the
Goal marathon I've been doing things on time not me
alone my fellow workers always look up to me
so when they see their boss doing this and this they
follow and then the flow goes to the kids
yeah so that's the best thing that has changed what has changed more
and also I've believed in growth I believe things work like how the
the universe works yeah so everything is just moving on perfectly
like i focus on positivity i've not been focusing on the negativity
of course at school we get some negative comments and all this and that
but i just focus on the positive well this is one of the classrooms that
is not complete but kids study from here and they use
these ventures in this school we do it as a charity to
some extent because we don't have enough fans to make them
study in good areas we let it put the flow it's not
clear well this is one of the other classrooms
that's under construction as you can see no windows and here we go
unfortunately and this is one of the teachers actually
i don't have enough offices so the teacher is just in this building
trying to make the notes that he's going to teach
a teacher sits there and does his work from there so you can see
that we lack a lot of infrastructure especially the offices
and the classrooms is where the girls stay
these are the days but unfortunately as you can see this room is very small
and there are over 20 girls who sleep here so that means some girls sleep two
to three on the same bed so that's a big challenge
so we need to get more beds so that we can have enough space for sleeping and
you can see another mattress is just there because the beds are not enough
so we are looking for more fans and have more baits for the kids
so you'll find that there are three kids sleeping here two
facing this side and one facing this side
and the same applies here but each kid with their own blanket you can see there
is this one and this one this is a toilet in the bathroom
so in the mornings they made the shop from here
this one is 40 but they use here so it's the only one this supplies
20 kids so 20 kids use this one we need to get
more of this because 20 kids can't use one toilet
it's a challenge play dormitory or girls because the girls have a lesser
room
so this one will be better it will be a bit bigger for them to
have less space and at least when you complete this and getting
funds they will have better spaces for staying
so this one has been just contracted recently
and after completion they have their
toilets inside at least they'll have enough toilets and
bathrooms yeah so construction is still going on
but it's very slow because of the funds and we use
solar energy we don't have electricity yet
so they always use solar
so they don't have books to read? they don't they just have not they don't
[They only have notebooks and they take notes from the blackboard]
even the teachers don't have enough books yeah even teachers
when i visited the school the first reaction
was amazing the kids just came to greet us
they were very happy they hugged us and it was very they were very happy to see
new people coming and after when you started showing the
school how life goes
I was... it made me think a lot about
how in our European schools we don't appreciate
that much things that the kids here don't have because we don't even think
where do we get all those balls all those books from we take it for
granted because yeah i'm going to school I am
supposed to have like good clothes, i'm supposed to
have books supposed to have balls and all the
equipment: the table, the chair everything should be personal and unique
and like we have everything and here
before we went to school when i saw you buying a ball
football ball for the kids and i asked you why don't you have a
boll in your school and you said that you had in your previous year
but then it got spoiled so now you're buying
a new ball so it's just one ball for the whole school!
for the all primary school for 150 kids just one ball and
in our school we had plenty footballs plenty of basketball balls volleyball
like all kinds of things and and seeing here
how much how every dollar can change their lives
made me realize that I really want to help these kids more and I decided to
organize a fund for your school so everybody who will watch this video they
will want to support your school and every dollar will matter here
and I hope that the people who look at these videos
will also want to help your school to grow to raise enough money
to provide kids with books with the sport equipment with nice dorms
that will be a big change in their lives my thinking is very positive i
know we shall get enough funds i know we shall reach out to more kids
especially from the poor families so that they can also
get the best education because we are trying
to provide the best educational supportive
even a dollar can change something a dollar can buy a book
actually only one dollar can i book and 20 dollars can do a lot
so what is the Goal Marathon? The Goal Marathon is a seven days life changing program [that I designed myself]
