Majengo is the Swahili word for ābuild.ā And thatās our commitment to the children of Majengo Childrenās Home in Tanzania. We provide stability, security, and support for the children in our care by offering good nutrition, medical services, clothing, and education.
While Majengo still aims to uplift individual children every day, we know that support of one child cannot exist in a vacuum. That is why, as the Majengo family grows, we continue to broaden our focus to the wider community.
Majengo Childrenās Home provides food, clothing, education, and love to vulnerable children in Tanzania who have nowhere else to turn. There are currently 260+ children enrolled in Majengoās programming.
We know that an uplifted community helps each child grow and thrive. We have shifted our focus outward by focusing both on programs in the home and in the community.
Throughout the year, Majengo runs training programs for local villagers, parents and young people in the Majengo community. These programs touch on a wide variety of topics, each designed to empower through education.
Some topics include: Livestock & Agriculture, Financial Planning, Family Planning and Sexual Health, Womenās Rights, Menstrual Hygiene, Female Genital Mutilation, Parenting.
These programs run throughout the year and are available to hundreds of people who are interested.
A Food Pack will subsidize a familyās food for one month. It will include basics like: Cooking oil Beans Ugali (a local polenta) Makande (a local corn and bean mixture).
Hygiene and sanitation are critical to keeping all of the children healthy, including those with chronic health conditions. Proper sinks, clean drinking water, bathrooms, and hygiene programs prevent the spread of germs and diseases.
Maintaining a centre with accessible roads, beds to sleep in, and security helps make Majengo a safe and secure home.
āEducation is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.ā ā Nelson Mandela
We provide uniforms, school fees, books, and any materials that make going to school possible.
These programs include: a pre-school, a Live-Out Program, a Special Education Program and
a Maasai Girls Education Program. It also includes community training programs, capacity building, and support.
Maintaining the physical and emotional health of each child is integral to their growth and development. This includes providing regular medical care, treatment for children with chronic illnesses, health training programs, and faith programs to allow each child to practice the religion of their choice.
Keeping food on the table helps our children grow and thrive. In addition to providing healthy balanced meals, we also have a farm and garden to ensure continuous food security and to teach farming skills. This program also extends to community programs to provide food packs to families facing food insecurity.
