Orphanage Project

 

Like other countries South of Sahara desert,Tanzania is also deeply affected by the epidemics of both poverty and HIV. Number of Orphans and street Kids is tremendously increasingly in big cities like Arusha. Efforts have been made by various local organizations and government to protect these children by offering much-needed education as well as skill-development training.

Volunteers help the children to build within themselves a self confidence to face the future and also organizing games, drawing classes, singing lessons, and even painting sessions. In this project, volunteers can organize any creative, extracurricular activities that the children may enjoy and love doing.
 This Tanzanian-based Organization "Focus in Africa" provides volunteer opportunity to work proactively in the orphanage's community and share their love, passion, individual skills, and efforts for the children.

The "Focus in Africa" is working with "Goodhope Orphanage center

HIV/AIDS has been growing rapidly hence threatening any effort for the developement within tanzanian themselves and as a nation,This pandemic deases as gone to the top of other killer deases in recently years and led to many orphans and street kids,volunteers are need to help create awareness which will lead to prevention of further spread of this epidemic,also help in doing Counseling which will give hope to the victims,the Project generally aim at prevent the transmission of HIV/AIDS and provide support to the affected.
We are working with UFATA Which is women against HIV/AIDS,you will be visiting families which have affected by HIV/AIDS and speak to victims aiming at doing counseling and give hope to the remaining mambers of the family,UFATA is unlike other HIV/AIDS prevention organization which operate here in Tanzanian most of them located in large building and guarded by armed security and symbolises all kinds richness while majority of victim are suffering in street no one to care,UfATA brings you to the other side of the coin where you come `face to face" with the victims who have no one to care simply because they are not known to any one who is working in the system of governent to help the HIV/AID Victim,as a result if you will not come with us and help with UFATA then such victims always die on sufferings and miseries.
