We support disadvantaged communities primarily in Tanzania but also in the UK. We send donations for food and provisions to families that are living in abject poverty. We sponsor students to enable them to attend school in areas where there is little or no state education. We do not offer individual grants but prefer to work with charitable organisations that have knowledge of the local area.
