600 children in Tanzania are waiting for education We are building their school
For many children, this remains out of reach.
Neema from the village of Nala would love to go to school. But the journey is almost 10 kilometers long – about two hours on foot each day, just one way.
While Juma is learning, Neema is denied this opportunity.
Your donation goes directly into building the school on site in Tanzania.
This is exactly why we are building a school in Nala, Tanzania
In many regions, there are not enough schools. Classes are overcrowded – many children are turned away.
For many children, the nearest school is several kilometers away. The daily journey is difficult for them to manage.
Without schooling, children have little chance to shape their own future or escape poverty.
With the school project in Nala, we are creating a place where children can learn and grow safely.
Education in Tanzania is still not a given for many children – especially in rural regions like Nala. Learn more about how we are building a new school campus and boarding facility step by step.
