Online exchange meeting with Hanamaru Study Group

2021-11-07
We held an online exchange meeting with children who attend the Hanamaru Study Group. More than 100 children and their parents from elementary school to high school participated.
After introducing Tanzania, we told a story about the daily life of an elementary school student in Tanzania. Actually, this story contains mistakes, and it is a quiz to find them.
The children were looking for mistakes while listening seriously. And there were many children who answered all the questions correctly.
At the end, everyone danced and sang the Swahili song 'Jambo Bwana' It was impressive that the parents sang more happily than the children.
TOFA holds lectures and networking events for various organizations. If you are interested, please contact us!
Accepted for LUSH Grant Program!

2021-11-15
It has been decided to adopt the subsidy program handled by LUSH, a handmade cosmetics brand headquartered in the UK!
With this subsidy, it is expected that we will be able to send textbooks to three new elementary schools (1693 students from Corelli Elementary School, Gwikongo Elementary School, and Matale Elementary School).
The subsidy program is funded by the LUSH sales of four charity pot products (hand and body lotion, etc.), and the full amount of sales, excluding consumption tax, is used to protect the natural environment, protect animal rights, and human rights. It will be donated and subsidized to grassroots organizations that work on advocacy, humanitarian aid and reconstruction assistance.
