A village in Africa needs a van

Donation protected
Obby Nyekwa was our Zambian safari guide last month.  Smart and kind and hard working, he is the oldest son who supports his younger sibs and pays their school fees because their parents were killed.  Last week the 10th member of their village, his brother, was killed by elephants as he took a shortcut through the neighboring game reserve to shorten his long walk to market.  
Obby is desperate to buy a used van for his village to make their trips to market shorter and safer.  The cost is $8,000 and he has $3,000 on hand.  I am hoping to raise $5,000.
