There was a time children with special needs were ignored or worse. But that has changed! Families are being introduced to physical therapy and shown how their children can benefit. Some of these children were never taken outside for fear of ridicule. Safe Home for Children with Disabilities is our partner in Arusha, Tanzania. It is so heart warming to see the progress. Each piece of equipment is the result of you! Thank you for your donations to make this happen.

Networking is something that can benefit both parties. Well, young men from Shalom Centre were introduced to Sumwood Workshop. Here they will be given the opportunity to learn about making furniture. This workshop does amazing work. The owner, Sunday, has wanted to teach young people what he has learned. This is a great opportunity for Shalom and those with an interest in woodworking.

Our Story

Character 101 was begun with the purpose of teaching Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship to the children of Arusha, Tanzania. Combating the corruption in so many countries and social settings brought about Character 101 as a means of teaching positive character traits to young people, for the purpose of combating the influences of corruption. Character 101 uses character studies and sports as tools to teach young people what it means to be a person of character. Character 101, a 501(c)(3) is funded by private donations.
