School Orchards Africa: Provides funds to purchase and
plant fruit trees in school grounds in rural areas of Tanzania, and to manage these orchards and their water supply. We have: A direct, personal relationship with a group of trusted Tanzanians in a local NGO called TanCan, who supervise the work onsite. Together: We help elementary schoolchildren achieve a better basic education and earn money for secondary schooling. |
You can help these children and their village community by donating as little as $10, which will fund a fruit tree from planting to harvesting.
