In 2006, Phil was involved in a three-week mission trip to Arusha, Tanzania to help complete the construction of two classroom buildings for the Ebenezer Girl's Secondary School. Only about 1% of the girls in Tanzania graduate from high school. With education of the female population as the best defense against the horrors of AIDS, this school is literally a god-send. Since 2006 the school has grown to include 2 more classroom buildings, a science lab, computer lab, and alibrary. In 2009 the firm designed a series of dormitory buildings, a matron's home, and an additional classroom building to accomodate the growing campus.
