Amani Childrens Home is dedicated to the protection of Tanzanias most vulnerable population: street-children and AIDS orphans. It is estimated that there are 2.5 million orphaned children in Tanzania.
Since its founding by Tanzanians in 2001, Amani has rescued hundreds of children from the perils of life on the streets, where they face a high risk of HIV transmission, malnutrition, and abuse.
Amani, which means peace in Swahili, provides healthy food, education, counseling and medical care for every child who turns to us for help.
Thanks for posting this video. I stayed in Karanga village in 2008 to do some volunteer work and walked by the Amani facility everyday. The building looks amazing, I have since visited the website and am very impressed and interested in all of the work you do. I am a school teacher and would one day love to do some long term volunteering with Amani. Keep up the good work, I'm so proud that there are people in this world who still care!
