Building sustainable futures for Tanzanian children through compassionate outreach,

The Faraji Foundation is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that supports vulnerable children in rural Tanzania through long-term investments in education, sustainability, health, and community development.
What began as a small group of volunteers inspired by one extraordinary woman has grown into a lasting partnership that continues to change lives.
Your donation helps provide a safe home, access to education, and a stronger future for the children who need it most.

Needs Education Support
The Faraji Foundation was born in the summer of 2008 when Jackie Weiss, Eric Nelson, and Amy Viola volunteered together at Tuleeni Home. Inspired by Mama Faraji’s unwavering dedication and the pressing need for a new home for the children living in temporary conditions, where the future felt uncertain. Moved by what they witnessed, they launched a project called “Help Build Tuleeni a Home”.
The goal was clear: raise the funds needed to purchase land and build a sustainable orphanage where children could grow up safely, attend school, and feel supported.
With the support of donors and friends, that vision became reality. The Faraji Foundation helped secure more than 40% of the total construction funds, contributing directly to the purchase of land and the completion of a permanent home for the children. This milestone marked the beginning of a deeper, long-term commitment to education, stability, and community support.
