*** NEW VIDEO filmed at TEMBO in Longido, Tanzania in May 2020 as part of a conversation between our Community Facilitator and a TEMBO sponsored girl as they discuss how COVID-19 can be transmitted in the community and the impact it is having on students.
As the COVID-19 pandemic spreads through Tanzania, TEMBO is still working to support the women and girls in Longido District. Currently, schools are closed and the 143 girls we are sponsoring for secondary school are at home trying to continue their studies. Our TEMBO staff are reaching out to the families in remote villages to ensure they are safe and provide each girl with health education, toiletries, food and learning materials.
Your generosity can help send a girl to school plus outfit her with the necessary items including a uniform, trunk, bedding, toiletries and books.
When you buy a gift, you help us cover the cost of sending a girl to school, offering outreach programs and filling the shelves with books at the Longido District Learning Centre.
