Welcome
The foundation for Kilindoni was started in 2014 in Afro Whale Shark Safari. It is ran by the local people of Kilindoni and the aim is to provide opportunities for visitors to visit local schools and Swahili houses. Visitors can participate in various environmental conservation initiatives, for example tree planting and respecting whale shark rights. Tourists can also experience the frie
ndly culture of the Swahili people in Kilindoni (Mafia Island, Tanzania) and help children locally. We believe that every people should have the opportunity to participate in environmental conservation because is the best way to create good environment. The most important thing is for children to attend primary school, as a starting point. We are convinced that education is the best way to educate people about environmental conservation, and this must be done starting with children. It is well understood that poor uneducated children grow up to be poor uneducated adults. Help us to help people of Mafia Island to participate in various environment conservation initiatives, like planting trees, to educate people to respect whale shark rights. Opportunities are available to sponsor a child or deliver school kits to children in Kilindoni. If you want to get involved in the foundation, after whale shark watching you will get to visit a local school and you will get the chance to teach a child if you would like to do that. We decided to create the foundation here to give local people the chance to be benefited from your coming
