"The school uniform colors were orange and blue. Every morning when I walked into the school courtyard, a knee-high orange and blue tidal wave would come gushing out of the school to greet me. It warmed my heart to see how loving the children were to me, a perfect stranger."Ila Tyagi, Tanzania Volunteer
