PROGRESS AND PLaNS, 1963-1964 - Page 13.
Pinancial Support
The need for the v/ork of the Mozambique Institute becomes greater
as the number of refugee students in Dar es Salaam increases.  Our hope
is that the time that Mozambicans must spend in Tanganyika and other
countries before they can return to a free Mozambique will be short.
But it is during this period that every opportunity must be made to
help prepare these young men and women for the responsibilities of the
future, so that they may face them with informed minds and pioneering
hearts.
It is our earnest hope that the Pord Poundation will continue to
lend its support to the Mozambique Institute for the coming fiscal
year.  We hope that the generosity of the Pord Foundation can serve
as a back bone for our programme's continuation, but v/e also hope to
interest other organizations in providing funds for special programmes
and for the support of specific students.  While working hard to solve
the problems presently confronting us in Dar es Salaam, the Mozambique
Institute has sought out agencies and committees that can take up
specific financial responsibilities after the initial capital outlay.
For instance, negotiations are in process for medical supplies and
equipment to be forwarded to Dar es Salaam to establish a clinic for
Mozambican refugees.  We hope that it will be finalized and the shipment received in late 1964 or early 1965.
The food situation is always a trying one since it is an item
needing continual replenishment.  During a food crisis among the refugee
students, a way v/as sought to relieve the constant struggle for existence among the students.  The relief agencies are often willing to
help, but they can do so only when a shipment of food arrives, and
this kind of aid is at best sporadic.  Therefore, the Mozambique Institute is now trying to coordinate the supply of food from various
agencies so that meal, for instance, can be more regularly supplied.
A programme is also being organized, v/hich hopefully can bear fruit
sometime in 1965, whereby many small groups can take the responsibility of supporting one or more students in the hostel.  This v/e feel
is necessary since the replacement costs and continuing expenses for
even seventy students could be better used for capital outlay.  This
programme, however, takes considerable energy to organize, and it is
only just starting.
The tutors for the hostel are being sought.  Their modest salaries
are being paid by groups interested in the educational project.  Housing is still a pressing problem in Dar es Salaam, and for the first
year the Mozambique Institute will have to supply residences.
The primary and literacy programme established at the large refugee
Ctimp is an interesting project with great educational potential.  With
a good example set in an energetic start and rapid advance in the level
of the young student, the Mozambique Institute hopes to make a liaison
with other schools in Europe and the United States in order to supply
school needs to these refugee students.  It is a straightforward
educational project and should be of interest to cooperating schools.
