(1) Peanut processing, Tabora
We supported this womens group to purchase machinery so they could start producing peanut butter to sell locally. The project is going well and bringing in income to help support their families.
Read more about this project here.
(2) Water point, Kigoma
Local children carry water long distances from this pond shared with animals to their homes.
We are currently fundraising to support more villages like this with boreholes and spring protection schemes.

Girls who become pregnant, even via rape often lose their access to education. Our Tumaini Open School project gives them a second chance to follow their dreams. Here they are enjoying a biology lesson.
