Both Richard and Ricki are working seriously at making a differance in their country Tanzania.
When Richard was interviewed after walking out of the BB house as the winner of BB Africa 2 his words were ...

"I love you all
Whatever I do I want to change people's lives positively."

Richard has kept his word and is currently working on a documentary covering the senseless killing of Albinos in Tanzania.

He wishes to bring an awareness to this shocking situation.

Below are his words from his blog page ...

"My idea to make a documentary about the albino killings is slowly turning into a campaign. I have been meeting with government officials and I have more appointments this week. I am so happy that people are really taking interest in this human rights issue."

Ricki works in the community for MEDA and is currently busy with the project of distributing insecticide-treated bed nets to pregnant women and infants to fight the battle against illness and death caused by Malaria.

Through the initiative, MEDA has helped to create a network of more than 6,500 retail outlets nationwide, where previously the life-saving nets were not available.

To talk without intention
To give without reason
