Global Resource Alliance and Ring Shout Project will host a free community event with food, music, art, and education to raise awareness and support for Global Resource Alliance’s work for a natural, holistic, and sustainable approach to poverty in the Lake Victoria region of Tanzania. This Sunday, April 6, from 1-4 p.m., enjoy regional food, live blues music, an African bazaar, and view a short documentary that talks about the work Global Resource Alliance has done.
