Nice Orphans - Children's Home
The children's home is the "heart" of our project, which started in 2004. At that time, Florida took in street children to take care of them and give them a home.
Today there are 23 children living in the orphanage and 70 children could be transferred to foster families, but every week employees of the project visit to ensure that the children in the new families are well. Florida and Mama Sarah are particularly keen that all children can go to school. School fees, school uniforms and school supplies always cost a lot of money to send all the children to school. That's why we want to help cover these costs so that children can go to school and create a foundation for their future.
education
Education plays a vital role in the work of Florida and Mama Sarah in Tanzania. HIV and AIDS, nutrition, hygiene, and even female genital mutilation lead to numerous problems in the region where the center is located and often have serious health consequences. Therefore, grants will be used to hold regular seminars and events to discuss these issues so that people in the region know how to protect themselves. In particular, topics such as female genital mutilation and child marriage are to be treated with great sensitivity in this event and Florida told that especially men have a great interest in these events, which is particularly important because the men are the ones in the Bomas (villages) the Maasai make the important decisions.
bakery
A delicious freshly baked bread - that's what everyone likes to eat! Florida and Mama Sarah want to buy an oven and sell the bread to cover the running costs of the children's home. The two can bake, now an oven is to be purchased in order to start the project. If you want to support both, we are looking forward to it!
Agriculture
In the countryside around the center, Florida and Mama Sarah grow corn, beans and vegetables. The children are then harvested together and the children can learn a lot about agriculture and at the same time the children can be fed with it.
Water & electricity
The village in which the center is located, there is neither a power line, nor a water pipe. The Maasai who live there pick up the water that they need from a river nearby. But before the river flows through their village, it flows through Arusha, a city that pumps its sewage into the river. The contaminated water causes many diseases, which is why filter systems or a groundwater well should help provide people with pure water on site.
A few months ago, Florida and Mama Sarah were able to equip the center with a small solar panel and have power and light without relying on government power. Now they are planning to set up more solar panels to power the people around them.
