Oh I thought of something else.
I was driving down past the Airport last week and saw that they were putting a new tin roof on the airplane hangers.
I called the guy who was doing it and asked if we could have the old tin to ship to Africa, he said absolutely:)
He brought it all over a few days ago and I was shocked at how much there was, each sheet is 27ft long and my 5,000lb lifting forklift could hardly pick up the whole pile. I think there is at least 3 times the amount I bought for the Swaziland warehouse? I paid $10,000 U.S. for the tin there, so I'm estimating that there is at least $30,000 worth here:):):)
Mfana told me the other day that they had a few pieces of tin left over from the building so they went out and fixed an old ladies roof that was leaking and they were also able to build a little road side shack for Nqobile so she can sell some bananas and mangoes out of to try and get by, she's the girl with the clubbed feet and 5 kids.
I can only imagine how many people they will be able to help with this much tin!
Again I love how this all comes together:)
