Make An Impact in Tanzania
Causes in Tanzania
World Pix loves working with causes in Tanzania. Our heart fills with joy every time we visit this beautiful country!
Tanzania is an East African country known for its beautiful vast wilderness areas.
These areas include the plains of Serengeti National Park, a safari mecca populated by the “big five” game, Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Buffalo and Rhino, and Kilimanjaro National Park, home to Africa’s highest mountain.
Offshore lie the tropical islands of Zanzibar, with Arabic influences, and Mafia, with a marine park home to whale sharks and coral reefs.

Our Efforts in Tanzania
Overview
Children in rural areas suffer substantially higher rates of malnutrition and chronic hunger.
Factors of Poverty
Other factors for the tremendous poverty are limited technology as well as trade and marketing support. There is a heavy dependence on rain-fed agriculture and natural resources.
Social Problems
The most prominent challenges Tanzania faces in poverty reduction are unsustainable harvesting of its natural resources, unchecked cultivation, climate change and water- source encroachment.
Health Problems
Due to a shortage of clean blood supply in Africa, mothers die during child birth at a much higher rate, resulting in many orphaned babies. In Tanzania, babies are abandoned in hospitals, churches, along the road, in forests, bus stations, and many other places.
WorldPix Sponsored Organizations
World Pix has partnered with the following organizations in Tanzania to make a difference in the lives of the people here.
Worldpix is proud to partner with Neema Village in the city of Arusha, Tanzania.
Neema Village
Neema Village began as “Neema House” in 2012 as a rescue center for abandoned, orphaned and at risk babies in Arusha, Tanzania, East Africa.
During that time, more than one hundred eighty-five babies have been rescued, many abandoned babies have now been adopted and others who had lost their mothers during the birth were saved and have now been able to return home to an extended family member.
Neema lives by the idea of creating “Families not Orphanages.” This belief is part of Neema’s core values.

Care For Africa Foundation
The Foundation has already participated in several projects in some of the poorest parts of Africa—Tarime in the Mara Region of Tanzania and in Southern Kenya. Many more projects have been identified in these areas, including sending orphans to school, stocking libraries in schools, and providing running water to local health care facilities.
The Foundation’s key partner in Tanzania is the Tarime Goodwill Foundation, run by Dr. Hudson Winani.
