Education Creates Opportunity
In Mwanza, Tanzania, Health & Hope Foundation provides free supplemental education to 100 orphaned and vulnerable children, from pre-primary through secondary school.
Our students attend 10 government schools and come to Tumaini for additional instruction, educational resources, nutritious meals, and a safe place to learn.
“Tumaini” means “hope” in Swahili—a fitting name for a school dedicated to brighter futures.
Building Skills for the Future
English Language Learning
English proficiency opens doors to higher education, employment, and economic opportunity in Tanzania.
At Tumaini, we are expanding English instruction to help students build confidence in speaking, reading, writing, and understanding English. Lessons are designed to meet students where they are in their learning.
Digital Literacy & Science Education
Most Tumaini students don't have computers at home or in government classrooms. Our Wi-Fi-enabled tablets provide an opportunity to develop essential digital skills.
Students learn how to care for and operate a device, navigate educational programs, and use technology to research geography, history, science, and other subjects.
Through our Generation Genius science subscription, students explore practical science lessons and experiments covering topics from climate change to human anatomy.
These experiences build curiosity, independent learning skills, and confidence with technology—preparing students for opportunities beyond the classroom.
Solar Light helps Education Shine
Imagine never having electricity at home. This is true for over 80% of Tumaini students. It gets dark early, and studying by dim candle or kerosene is dangerous. Solar lights mean student learning does not have to stop at sunset.
Tumaini Tutor Nutrition Program
Energy to learn. Better health. Greater opportunity.
All 100 Tumaini students receive a nutritious meal to support their health, attendance, and ability to learn. Food purchased from local women's business groups also supports family incomes.
Meals include foods such as eggs, fruit, and nutritious finger millet or sorghum porridge, helping supplement the children's diets.
Help Build Brighter Futures
Your support helps provide education, nutritious meals, and digital learning opportunities for 100 children at Tumaini Tutor School. Together, we're opening doors to brighter futures.
