The Woza Moya Community Centre generously funded through Kittisaro and Thanissara's close association with the San Fransisco Buddhist community in the USA, is officially opened! 

 

The project team finally leaves its base in the BRC and moved into the new Community Centre, just a kilometre down the road from the BRC and 15km from Ixopo.

Built on tribal land given to Woza Moya for this purpose in 2004, it is situated in the heart of the Chibini community. thumb_2004_Site_Clearance
