About Thrive Tanzania
Thrive Tanzania is a Christian charity organization dedicated to bringing the life-changing love of Jesus into communities in Tanzania. We recognize that every person was created by God on purpose and for a purpose - both collective and individual. It is the heart of God that we function as a unified body. Each of us having been given gifts and abilities designed to benefit the greater whole, we are interconnected. When one is stronger, we all are stronger. With this understanding, the mission of Thrive Tanzania is to provide essential services needed for each person to fulfill the purpose for which they were created.
With a focus on sustainable development, Biblical truths, and cultural authenticity, we aim to create lasting positive impacts in the lives of individuals and families across Tanzania. Through our programs and projects, we strive to address key challenges and improve the well-being of the community.
Vision
Thrive Tanzania seeks to serve local communities by:
-
improving living conditions

providing opportunities for employment including professional development and skills training
-

Education
Empowering Through Knowledge
Our educational programs focus on providing access to quality education for children and adults in underserved areas. By equipping individuals with knowledge and skills, we open up opportunities for people to build better futures for themselves and their communities.
We understand that growth starts from within. Bringing in outside people to provide educational and healthcare services is not a sustainable solution. For communities to flourish, community members need to be equipped to provide essential services for each other. As such, in addition to traditional career fields, Thrive Tanzania seeks to provide diverse educational opportunities for local villagers to learn essential trades such as healthcare, engineering, and entrepreneurship.
Healthcare
Promoting Wellness
Access to healthcare is crucial for community well-being. We seek to support the establishing and maintaining of medical services and health education. Additionally, it is our vision to improve access to medical services for all community members. This includes, but is not limited to, the creation of ambulance services to people in rural areas, professional at-home birth assistance, and annual wellness checks for people in all stages of life.
Community Support
Strengthening Relationships
Through consistent demonstration and teaching of Biblical principles, we aim to create a network of care and assistance where individuals and families develop a mindset of unity centered around the heart of Christ.
By fostering strong community bonds, we create a supportive environment where everyone can thrive.
​
It is our expectation that as people embrace the love of God, they will learn to yield to the moving of the Holy Spirit. The cycle of discipleship will continue as each person grows into fulfilling their God-given purpose.
