Kulanu served as fiscal sponsor for a major grant to the Kavule School for the Deaf.<\/li>\n<li>The Harare Lemba Synagogue, which Kulanu helped to establish in Zimbabwe last year, continues to grow and thrive, assisted by excellent volunteers who worked alongside the Lemba community and taught various subjects for several months this past year. Construction continues on the synagogue in the countryside with funding from Kulanu and labor by the community.<\/li>\n<li>We continue to utilize the Internet to further our mission, funding Internet access to connect isolated communities with social networking and online learning, and sharing photos and videos (<a shape=\"rect\">www.youtube.com\/kulanuvideo<\/a>,<a shape=\"rect\">www.kulanu.phanfare.com<\/a>). This year we produced a short video about Kulanu\u2019s work, and collaborated with filmmakers making films about our communities in Ghana, Cameroon, and Ethiopia.
