You can choose the department you would like to support — medical care, patient assistance, maternity care, or surgical support.

English, French, Sports or Maths Teacher (primary and secondary schools):
You will support children in their daily learning and personal development. Many schools are overcrowded and have limited resources, so your support can make a meaningful difference in the children’s education and confidence.

Environmental project: tree planting, Nanofilter & Biogas
We cooperate with the Nanofilter House in Arusha, which is building and installing water filters to ensure the people a safe and clean drinking water. The water in Tanzania has a very high level of fluoride, which causes severe bone deformities and also teeth problems and other infections like typhoid or hepatitis. In rainy season, we plant trees in masai villages to protect our environment, spend shadow and build new ressources.
