I am 25 years old Tanzanian Boy who was born and studied in one of the very poor community where kids, youths and women are definitely struggling to build their better life situation. At the moment I have a non profit organization where by now we are running different projects for the purposes of helping the community where I was born and grew up. Few months ago I opened a children school where we have succeed to get 45 kids from poor families in my community. Another program which we have is sport program for youths under seventeen years old where we give them an opportunity to to play different sports after school program and during the weekend. Youths are playing Football and Netball as one of the physicals exercise to keep them away from engaging with bad groups.

Until now we succeed to reach 24 families and get 43 kids and give them free education opportunity for their better future. We are located in Arusha district at Sokoni one Ward and it's just ten minutes from the City Center of Dar es salaam and 45 minutes to Julius Nyerere International Airport.

We managed to buy a sewing machine where women from poor families who have no skills are trained how to sew clothes in order to be employed or employe themselves. Now we have trained 13 women how to sew and each class is completed within three months.

●.HEALTH AND AWARENESS
In my community there are families who live with some non communicable diseases like Diabetes, Blood Pressure and Cancer for a long time and still believe that these kind of diseases can not be cured and some believe is witchcraft issues . We have currently start the program of health to give them an advice on how they can be cured even by using our daily food stuffs and let them know that these diseases are like other diseases and not witchcraft issues.
