SUMMER FELLOW PROJECT CONTINUATION
This project was continued as a fellowship by Shirley Fung in Tanzania. Shirley had the final advertising and informational materials printed in Tanzania for the KCMC Wheelchair Workshop to distribute. She also wrote a manual explaining how to make a website at an internet cafe and post it for free through Google Page Creator. The manual has since been used by many people to create websites, including one for the KCMC Wheelchair Workshop made by wheelchair technician Abdullah Munish.

Shirley also maintained a blog during her fellowship. Check it out to read about details of her experience in Tanzania.
