More information
Tanzania has many orphans with little hope of a future. Malaika Kids aims to help these children and give them a real future. We wish to offer the children a ‘home’ in which they can be safe and secure, receive regular meals and, simply, be a child again. We wish to achieve our aim in two ways: by the Relatives Support Programme and by building Malaika Children's villages. As soon as an orphan is placed in our care, we try to locate family members during a period of up to two years. If this succeeds, the family situation is assessed. Wherever possible the child is placed with his wider family. Usually the family will receive ongoing support, financial or material, from Malaika Kids.
