Everything You Need To Know About Your Next Tanzanian Adventure

Tumaini for Africa was founded in 2009 by Beatrice Boniface Mollel, Baraka Mollells's mother, and is now run by the family Mollel with the help of volunteers from all over the world. Tumaini is created to help the orphanage children in Arusha providing them with security, care, and education. Many children have been part of this organization and spent a better life rather than being street kids.

The orphanage has room for 30 children receiving education, health care, and safe housing. Intending to provide children with a healthy life and equal opportunity to be educated and spend the life that they deserve the organization emphasizes a lot on education. But Tumaini for Africa also provides children with a sufficient basis to enable them to continue their education.

Every child should have the ability to choose their career like being a teacher, doctor, or wildlife conservator, and more. The dream is that the former orphanage children to return to the orphanage and contribute to the development of their work.

Lifetime Safaris is closely linked to the orphanage Tumaini for Africa. Safari business has been created to provide the orphanage economic stability. We also aim to eventually be able to offer these children to work in the company.

We want our safari operations to contribute to local development – for what could be more beneficial to society than children who feel secure enough to dream of the future while providing them with opportunities to realize these dreams?
