    Over het programma

    Tanzanite Nursery School is a kindergarten founded in 2020 by Salim Sangali. It is located in Mbauda, a poor neighborhood on the western side of the city of Arusha. The project started operating immediately after schools were reopened after the COVID lockdown. During that time, most people had lost their jobs and had no financial means to send their children to school.
     
    Founder Salim, a carpenter by profession, is a passionate education advocate determined to bring quality education to children in
    people in the neighborhood who cannot afford it.

    Challenges:
    Tanzanite Nursery School is still very much in its early stages, with most equipment not being there due to financial shortages. Children's study equipment, sports equipment, and teaching support would be a huge necessity in helping this project grow.
    The classrooms are also not in the best shape for kids, with a much-needed ventilation system and a new toilet.

    What can you do:
    Anyone is welcome to participate in this project in a variety of capacities. Volunteers can assist in teaching the children and assisting the staff in improving their teaching abilities and relationships with the children. The facilities require some upgrades and maintenance work, so this is also an area where you could help. You can also assist with fundraising and donations for educational equipment or financial assistance to cover the running costs of the project, such as staff salaries and food for the kids.

    How to get there:
    The best and easiest way to get to this project from our hostel is by using public transportation. You connect two buses from the hostel to the project, which can take up to 90 minutes to go and 60 minutes to return depending on traffic, as the traffic is thicker in the morning.
    The round trip cost Tsh 2,000 ($0.86) from the hostel to the project and back. On the first day, our staff will guide you on how to get around with public transportation to and from the project.

    On the weekend: 


    On the weekends volunteers will hand some free time to explore the local culture and surroundings. This could involve activities such as sightseeing, visiting local markets, and interacting with members of the community.


    Volunteers may have the opportunity to participate in organized tours or excursions on the weekends, such as visiting a waterfall, a coffee plantation, or a Maasai boma (a traditional Maasai village). These activities may require additional fees or expenses, so volunteers should be prepared to cover any costs associated with organized tours or excursions.
