In Tanzania there
are 2 million orphaned children, a staggering
number. One million children have lost their parents to HIV- AIDS. Only one hundred
thousand get help from tax supported agencies. In Arusha, in
2004 only 862 children (orphans) got support from the government the rest
depended on the donor community i.e. ngos, churches, private donors e.t.c.
Francesca Aimone and Jutta
kassam are two women in Arusha who have put their
time and energy into this major problem. They have
choosen to create their own
organization, the purpose of this to guarantee
a future for some of these children. Two volunteers soon became
Four , Four became Six, Six became ten. In December 2004
Malaika Children’s Home was born.
