Art in Tanzania
     

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.
