Bringing Light and Love to Tanzania
At Taa Pendo, we believe every child deserves a safe place to grow, learn, and belong. In Kigoma, Tanzania, many children face daily challenges accessing education, healthcare, and necessities. Our organization was founded to change that. Through compassionate, hands-on care and a deep commitment to community, we’re working every day to uplift vulnerable children and help them thrive.

Rooted in Love,
Built on Hope
Taa Pendo was founded on the belief that every child deserves the chance to live with dignity, safety, and opportunity.
Our work centers on the children of Kigoma, Tanzania, with a special focus on supporting young girls—who are often denied the same access to education, healthcare, and protection as boys. With a team of dedicated on-site staff and the support of our donors, we provide holistic care that meets each child’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Together, we’re creating a community where children can not only survive, but truly thrive.
