520    UNICEF estimates that Tanzania has over three million 
       orphans. The Bethsaida Orphan Girls Secondary School seeks
       to help the ?most vulnerable of Tanzania's children. 
       Founded by Mrs. Anna Machary in 2005 under the auspices of
       the non-governmental organization, the Olof Palme Orphans 
       Education Center, the school currently enrolls over 130 
       orphan girls from all over the country, providing them 
       with free housing, meals, psychological support and a 
       quality secondary education. This book features short 
       stories by thirteen students and has the dual purpose of 
       being a fundraiser for the school and giving the girls a 
       voice. It is a unique and enthralling work of fiction, 
       Their Voices: Their Stories ranges from magical realism to
       fable, from historical fiction to bildungsroman. Under the
       professional and passionate editorial guidance of Maryland
       professor Julie Wakeman-Linn, this collection sings of the
       fears, anxieties and dreams of young Tanzanian women, who 
       pray their education will be the golden ticket out of 
       lives filled with poverty and abuse.
