Purchase Warthog Productions’ documentary Wandering Warrior to support the Tom Mpeti Ole Surum school.

At the age of nineteen, Maasai warrior Mpeti Ole Surum, inspired by American tourists on safari and their talk of the “outside world”, entered the first grade and changed his name to “Tom” in an effort to learn about the world beyond his valley. Three years later, Tom graduated with an eighth-grade education and the ability to read and write in English. A skilled warrior and charismatic showman, Tom went abroad to foster tourism and Maasai culture. He quickly became a sought-after lecturer and entertainer, performing at schools, colleges, and universities across the US. With a wife and son at home in Massachusetts, Tom returned every year to Kenya to share his American stories and bounty with his Maasai people.

All funds from the purchase of Wandering Warrior go to the Tom Mpeti Ole Surum School in honor of Tom.
