Background
Art in Tanzania is
a Tanzanian NGO, also registered in Finland, arranging vocational training, school
teaching, orphan education and women projects
in towns and villages in Tanzania. We have Finnish
and expatriate members working together with numerous
small local Tanzanian NGO-s, schools, women groups
and other small entities. We arrange short and
long-term voluntary work in various areas such as teaching
English, IT training, health
(HIV, malaria), women support, arts and handicrafts, music, sports and environmental and conservation projects.
We operate in Dar es Salaam, Moshi, Arusha, Masai land and Zanzibar. We have around 100 volunteers in the country at any one time and 60 permanent staff to run the projects and to assist the volunteers.
We finance our operations
by placement fees and from the proceeds from the safari and other
adventure programs that we arrange for the visiting volunteers.
Our
Objectives
Our main objective is to enhance the quality of life in the rural villages and for the orphans, women and tribal
people such as the Masai tribe. We also perform environmental
projects such as introducing fire bricks made of waste
materials to cut down on deforestation charcoal.
We operate at a grass root level so the work is easy for all the volunteers to attend. We finance our operations
with the small profits made from the attending volunteers
as well as from our other financial resources such
as the safari programs.
We provide adventure
packages for attending volunteers such as wild
life safaris, coral island sailing trips, climbing
Kilimanjaro, weekend trips to Zanzibar and other adventures.
Many visiting volunteers want to encounter the
beautiful Tanzanian scenery and wildlife. These adventure operations
assist us financially to run and develop the community
work projects.
