Empower Tanzania is committed to creating sustainable change, in partnership with people living in rural Tanzania, through community-led solutions.
“This report focuses on data and statistics that show the impact of Empower Tanzania’s activities last year. But behind each of those statistics are thousands of individual Tanzanians who are the real reason we are working there. Their faces showing joy and confidence and their voices showing pride and gratitude are the true measure of our impact.”
Phil Latessa, President
Board of Directors
Empower Tanzania partnered with One Day’s Wages to raise $15,000 for the Same Learning Center through a matching grant campaign in late 2022. The funds will support 50 vulnerable students participating in this program!
