25,918 children empowered so far
We’re a team of volunteers that’s empowering children in Arusha, Tanzania to break the cycle of poverty.
Education & Health Projects
We partner with 11 communities in rural Tanzania where 99% of families are trapped in the poverty cycle. Together we transform their local dilapidated school into an inspiring place to learn and thrive. Each community contributes 10% of the labour to our projects.
Empowering Girls
Girls are central to all of our projects because they are often missing up to 50 days of school per year due to lack of facilities to manage their period. Plus, they are at risk of child marriage, child pregnancy and child labour. But don’t worry, we don’t forget about the boys!
100% Donation Promise
We’re a group of volunteers that have dedicated our time since 2013 so that 100% of donations goes to our projects. We prioritise showing our supporters exactly where their money has gone through the help of GPS and lots of photos and videos.
Why we work in Tanzania
Tanzania is the 34th poorest country in the world
We have visited class sizes of 144 in one standard classroom because there is such high demand, which makes education quality low
Girls are often stigmatised during menstruation and do not attend school
5 students often have to share 1 textbook
If a child doesn’t pass their exams at the end of Primary School first time, they will not be able to attend Secondary School
£800,000+ raised
All by our amazing volunteers so 100% of donations go to our projects

Our Tanzanian delivery partners
We work with local communities and organisations in Arusha to tackle barriers to education together.

We have previously collaborated with CHETI NGO since 2013.
