Give street children a second chance

Hundreds of Children Given a Bright Future

Mussa is one of them. He comes from a very poor family. There was no money for school and there was no attention for him at home. His father drank a lot of alcohol and his mother had to take care of 5 children, do the housework and earn the money for living.

At the age of 7, Mussa decided to earn his own money for food on the street. In Mwanza, he had a conversation with one of the social workers. With the help of Upendo Daima, Mussa is now living at home again and is attending high school. He wants to become a teacher.

Every picture contains a story

Climbing the rocks is a fun and exciting outing. And even more importantly, they learn to work together to be able to reach the top.

A lollipop is reason to be in a festive mood all day.

In their free time, the boys love to play games. They made this checkers board themselves from an old piece of cardboard and bottle caps.

Acrobatics is not only fun to do. It also helps the boys in building trust in themselves and in others.

Everyone has their tasks within Upendo Daima. Doing the dishes for 50 children is quite a task!

The children learn to be self-sufficient. The boys take care of the chickens, maintain a vegetable garden, and in the evening they help with cooking the meal.

Moms sort the rice, in preparation for the Easter meal.

All children go to the local primary school, where they learn to read, write and do maths together with the children from the neighborhood.
