Causes: Philanthropy

Mission: The Precious Project’s mission is to defend the human rights of an impoverished rural Tanzanian village of Nshupu through projects that address grave disparities in education, care, gender equality, and economic development. The Project’s foundation is based on four pillars:
• Caring for orphans of HIV and other vulnerable children;
• Providing children access to quality education;
• Empowering women via education and micro-enterprises;
• Modeling and teaching self-sustainability through agriculture and other best practices.

Results: Built a new home for 15 HIV/AIDS orphans, building a primary school for 232 desperately poor children who otherwise would not have the chance to attend school (construction will be completed September 2015 and the school will open officially January 2016.All facilities operate on Permaculture principles.
