What is Africompassion?
Africompassion works to help impoverished children and families become self-reliant and rise out of poverty through clean water, education, and medical care. We sponsor a school for orphans and impoverished children in Kogaja--a village in the Mara region of Tanzania--and drill wells to provide clean water for villagers.
Africompassion USA is a registered 501c3 non-profit. We partner with Africompassion Organization, an NGO registered in Mwanza, Tanzania, founded by Jerald Malamba in 2019.

Building A Better Future
We are grateful that this January 2024 we opened our new school building and hired professional certified teachers and implemented a substantial curriculum, moving from an open air building with untrained volunteer teachers. Construction has begun on an additional wing of our school, featuring three new classrooms designed to foster learning and growth.

Join our family of donors and sponsor a child's education.
$30 supports a child's learning by providing materials, a teacher, a school uniform and meals for one month. Together, we can cultivate a better future for these children!
Clean Water For Everyone
Many are unaware of the severe water quality issues that countless villages across Africa face daily. This video takes you to the heart of Kogaja Village, where the residents previously relied on watering holes, mud puddles, and rain water for their water needs. These water sources are shared with local livestock, and are contaminated with animal and human waste, posing serious health risks and leading to the spread of diseases.
Thanks to supporters like you, we can focus on projects that truly impact the lives of those in the community and help lift people out of poverty.
