Our main project for 2015 was to build an orphanage for 80+ street children on the outskirts of Dar-es-salaam in Tanzania, East Africa.
The number of vulnerable and homeless children in Tanzania is continually rising, and help is urgently required to provide a safe shelter for these children. ToHelp has partnered with a local charity, Kind Heart Africa, headed by Reverend Ilukpitiye Pannasekara Thero, to facilitate the expansion of the orphanage.
The orphanage will be maintained by staff and volunteers who dedicate their time to support the welfare of vulnerable children through:
- Mentorship and tutoring
- Music and drama classes
- Library services
- Life skills workshops
- Vocational training
- Various sporting activities
- Reproductive health education
