Mission
The mission of the Faraja Fund Foundation is to provide opportunity, hope, and health for children with physical disabilities in Tanzania. It does this primarily by funding the Faraja Primary School, which offers education, health care, and physical therapy, and through the new Faraja Forward initiative, which extends community health and support programs into more remote villages. The ultimate goal is to empower graduates to become self-sufficient adults who can contribute to their families and communities.
