A lesson becomes even more meaningful when children have the tools to put it into practice. Our health team’s work in partner schools goes beyond check-ups and health classes. Alongside the lessons, the team provides practical support that helps children care for their health every day, encouraging good hygiene and healthy habits.

When you see Sigfrid (Sigi) on a construction site, you know something is happening!

As our Construction Director, he has been behind many of the spaces you see across the Village and at our partner schools. Over the years, project after project has taken shape under his watch, and it seems there is always something new on the drawing board.

Last year, Sigi led the construction of our third dormitory quad at Oldeani Secondary School, adding to the two dormitories already completed. Together, the three dormitories have created space for 460 students.
Now he is back on site, watching, measuring, checking, and probably already thinking three steps ahead.

So, what do you think Sigi is working on this time? Take your best guess in the comments!

True impact lives in the quiet, everyday routines that teach a child they are loved, valued, and safe. Grounded in our core principle of compassionate care, our house mothers bring this love to life after school and in every moment in between.

Happy Nane Nane!

“Eight Eight” might sound simple, but August 8 is a big day in Tanzania! It’s Nane Nane, Farmers’ Day, when we celebrate the people who plant, grow, and feed our communities.

So today, we're celebrating all things farming!

Meet Christina, who recently joined the team as our new Matron

For children growing up in a home like ours, care is built through the people who show up every day, offering guidance, encouragement, and a listening ear.
As part of our Child Welfare team, Christina, through her daily care and presence, helps create a sense of comfort and belonging for our children, being someone they can turn to for guidance, encouragement, and reassurance as they grow and face new experiences.

Her role is one part of the many ways we continue to strengthen our programs and the support we provide.

A little to where our journey with Gyetighi Primary School (GPS) began.

In 2007, GPS became the first school we partnered with. What started as a partnership has continued to grow over the years, creating many moments of change and progress along the way.

Where we started: The first image takes us back to the early days when students learned in challenging conditions. Limited space, unfinished floors, and a shortage of desks meant some students had to follow lessons from outside the classroom through the windows

Where we are today: Fast forward to today, same school, a whole new classroom experience. The floors are finished, more classrooms have been built to accommodate the growing number of students, and each classroom now provides more space for students to sit comfortably, participate, and learn in a more welcoming environment.

The bigger picture: And the best part? The story isn’t just about the classroom. We have also seen growth in student performance, showing what can happen when children have the right space and support to learn.

When we think about education, we think beyond the lessons and the spaces where children learn, grow, play, and dream. Every improvement creates a more supportive environment where children can discover their potential.

Yesterday, we had the chance to share more about our education journey during our webinar, and we are grateful to everyone who joined us, listened, and took the time to be part of these stories. Thank you for walking this journey with us as we continue creating opportunities for children through education.
