The Children’s Village officially opened in July 2010, presided over by former President Ali Hassan Mwinyi. Since its inception, the project was twice honored by a visit from the ‘Uhuru Torch' recognizing its contribution to national development.
The Children's Village is designed to provide a family-like atmosphere for every child. It includes family houses, sanitary blocks, classrooms, a small library, a computer room, a central kitchen, an infirmary, and two large open-sided halls where everyone gathers to eat and where children can play when it rains.
