As a participant, you'll be part of a new kind of community, making changes at the root level.
Tanzania has experienced steady economic growth in recent years. However, 27 percent of the population of Tanzania still live below the poverty line and an additional 8 percent live in extreme poverty.

A significant share of the population remains malnourished, with high stunting (impaired growth due to undernutrition) and increasing rates of overweight, obesity and vitamin and mineral deficiency. An estimated 20 percent of families are unable to afford a diet with sufficient calories, while 59 percent cannot afford a nutritious diet.

What is Visionary Tanzania?
Visionary Tanzania is connecting travelers with people in need. When you are ready, select a category, and provide a small donation if you like. But that's the least of what we are doing. There are already hundreds of non-profit organizations in Tanzania. Our real goal is to address root causes of these problems, and to help each other become more than we are.

Insight of the month
Darkness is a jewel in your hands
“All despair is followed by hope; all darkness is followed by sunshine. What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle. Once you conquer your selfish self, all your darkness will change to light.”
Jalaluddin Rumi


The dark and dismal times are most important, if we don’t shrink from them. That is where the real creative moment lies. Join us in Quest.
