How to help
Different ways to contribute
We receive many messages from people who want to support our work – and we truly appreciate it! To make it a little easier, we’ve gathered some suggestions for how you can get involved:
Feel free to contact us if:
- Your workplace or business would like to collaborate with us or offer support.
- Your school wants to contribute to a good cause – for example through raffles, fundraisers, or other activities.
- You’d like to host an event in collaboration with us. In the past, we’ve organized charity concerts, yoga classes, handmade goods sales, and more.
- You, as a private individual, want to become a sponsor or monthly donor. You choose the amount that suits you.
- You want to become a supporting member to show your encouragement for our work. It’s just 50 NOK per year and a great option if you’re not able to sponsor a child right now.
We appreciate the thought, but…
Many people kindly offer to donate used clothing or other personal belongings – and we’re genuinely grateful for the generosity. However, we’re unfortunately not able to accept such items. It’s far more cost-effective to purchase what we need locally, rather than spending large sums on shipping from Norway. It’s also important to us to support local businesses in Tanzania whenever we need supplies or materials.
We also receive messages from people who wish to travel and volunteer locally in Tanzania. While we truly appreciate the willingness to help, at this time we do not have a need for on-site volunteers.
Thank you so much for your desire to support our work – it means a lot!
