Actions and goals

The association’s primary purpose is to build and to provide financial support for children’s homes in Tanzania, to operate orphanages by STREETKIDS International themselves and to provide homes for socially disadvantaged children. STREETKIDS International accepts orphans exclusively in these homes. It is our target to enable children and young people to receive an adequat education and apprenticeship and to lead them until they can live an independent and aoutonomous life. We help people to help themselves in the long run and we support autonomy.

The Board of Directors or a representative of STREETKIDS International makes audits on the sites several times a year.
It is their responsibility to review operations of the homes and to guarantee that the objectives of the association are being followed.

That requires also proper nourishment and medical care to these children. We take them by the hand and lead them through the most important stages in their lives: Step by step. Our children receive an optimal primary education to get them off to a good start in their professional lives.

STREETKIDS International wants to start another home and establish the Medical Camp as a permanent aid project to take care of the children’s training. To this end, we need committed individuals who take their social responsibility beyond the boundaries. We are seeking donor companies and plan establishing benefit societies. We would like to help those who open their doors to us and to give help where our help is wanted and thankfully accepted. We give young people the possibility to intern at one of the homes; we give people - regardless of their colour - a space for sustainable social commitment in the third world.

According to the Department for Foreign Affairs and to a study conducted by UNICEDF, there are 12 million AIDS-orphans; 1.5 million of them live in Tanzania.
44 % of the population of Tanzania is malnourished and less than 38 % only has access to potable water.
