• School Orchards Africa: provides funds to purchase and plant fruit trees in school grounds in rural areas of Tanzania, and to manage the orchards and water supply.
• We have:  a  direct, personal relationship with a group of trusted Tanzanians in a local NGO called TanCan, who supervise the work.
• Together: we help elementary schoolchildren get a better education and earn money for their 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.

Planting fruit trees is educational


• Fruit tree stewardship teaches children how to be self reliant gardeners in a society with limited agricultural tradition.

• Fruit trees feed hungry children.  Water management helps the whole village.
• Excess produce sold will help fund secondary education.

Planting fruit tress also helps the environment by sequestering carbon. Because fruit trees grow more quickly in Tanzania they are more effective in capturing carbon.
