Donate to the Tanzanian Education Foundation(TEF) 

Please Remember that TEF is a 501(c)(3) organization so all donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE!

All donations go to sponsor the students of Meru View Nursery School, a small school in Tengeru Village outside Arusha, Tanzania. These funds allow us to provide such basic needs as porridge, milk, writing utensils, and books. We are also able to offer scholarships to those students so that they may continue their education. The scholarships pay for uniforms, school tuition, and any other assistance they may need. We greatly appreciate your purchase from our foundation and any donations you may contribute.

Ways to Donate

At TEF, we take pride in our close personal relationships with the schools and children that we sponsor. In order for us to keep in such close contact, we must visit the school. This is also how we know exactly where all of the donations are going and that all of our projects meet TEF's standards. The trip is a big expense for the foundation mainly due to the soaring price of airline tickets. Your generous donation of airline miles can help us provide a better service to the school and the children as well as help us maintain projects and monitor our donations.

In-Kind Donations

Since we very conscious of where we spend money at TEF, In-Kind donations are important. Currently, we are in need of laptops, digital cameras, office space, fax machine, airline miles, office supplies, and international cell phones, GPS systems, and copy machines.

We at TEF strongly believe in supporting the community as a whole not just as a school in the community. This is why we only buy our supplies in Tanzania. This helps support not only the children of Meru View Nursery School, but their family and friends as well. We really believe that it takes “a village to raise a child”.

Build a Fence at Meru View

Meru View Nursery School needs a fence built around the school in order to keep the children safe. Now the children can just walk out of school and go home. Currently, anyone can enter the school without permission. The construction of a fence will keep the children in the school and keep any unannounced visitors out, which will enhance the safety of the children & the school’s personnel. The total cost of the fence is $4000.00
