What we do

Our work

Education is our foundation — but our work reaches whole communities: children, youth, women and families across Tanzania.

Our programs

Four connected areas of work

01

Education & Sponsorship

Quality education and sponsorship for orphans, vulnerable children and young people, so poverty is never the reason a learner leaves school.

Education is where we start. Through our schools and sponsorships we remove the barriers — cost, distance and hardship — that keep vulnerable children and youth out of the classroom, and we keep them learning once they are there.

02

Livelihoods & Entrepreneurship

Practical entrepreneurship and income-generating skills for families, women and youth, building lasting self-reliance.

Strong families raise educated children. We equip parents, women and young people with entrepreneurship and livelihood skills, so households can support their own children's schooling and communities can grow stronger from within.

03

Environment & Community

Advocating for environmental conservation and helping communities protect the land and resources they depend on.

A healthy environment is the foundation of a healthy community. We raise awareness and support local action to conserve the natural resources our communities rely on today and for the future.

04

Rights & Advocacy

Standing up for the vulnerable and voiceless — the rights of women, youth and children across the community.

We speak up for the marginalised, voiceless and underprivileged — especially women, youth and children — through awareness, advocacy and community education about the rights every person holds, including a girl's right to stay in school.
