Sadly, there are an estimated 1,300,000 orphans and 437,000 street children in Tanzania, who are forced to rest in dangerous surroundings.
We sponsored over 200 children and young people, most of whom are orphaned, abandoned or from single-parent families, who reside in the community, in foster care or on-site at one of our children’s homes or youth hostels. Most of our children and young people attend school or are enrolled in a vocational course at college, whilst some undertake apprenticeships or work-shadowing in local industry. Outside of formal education, we deliver an extensive programme of extra-curricular learning, which emphasises soft skills development, leadership training and digital inclusion.
