Tesfa.org - We're taking off!

I've recently done a lot of design for a friend of mine, Dana Roskey, who runs the Tesfa Foundation. Tesfa (which means 'hope' in Amharic) is a local non-profit grass-roots charity organization that builds schools in Ethiopia (and soon other countries) for kids who otherwise wouldn't have access to early childhood education.  These schools are built on a shoestring budget, and dollars go very far in Ethiopia: the first Tesfa school was built for $5,000, and they've got seven of them now.  Teacher salaries are only $50 a month, so they're not difficult to keep funded through student sponsorships.
