LASWIDA – TANZANIA is a Nonprofit Organization registered under Non-Governmental Organizations Act, No. 24 of 2002 with registration No. 00NGO/R1/00894 and LAP 2023-0003. The core purpose is to bring back a smile to Street Children, Widows and People with Disabilities on the consideration that, these groups are particularly vulnerable to rights breaches and abuse because they are either illiterate, have limited access to support systems and representation, and or are currently struggling to meet their basic requirements which are limited by access to income and properties.

VISION

Restoring a smile to all widows, street children, and persons with disabilities in Tanzania.

STREET CHILDREN

LASWIDA – Tanzania aims at protecting the street children against tougher, inhumanity and death while preparing them to become the best parents for future Tanzania. Also, though protecting the widows’ right to property, the organization intends to minimize the number of children running from their homes to the streets. The Organizational Slogan is “FROM STREET CHILDREN TO BEST PARENTS”

People with dissabillities

People with different Disabilities in Tanzania like in so many other countries encounter a lot of challenges which push them to humiliation, and abuse of their rights resulting in extreme poverty. The poverty rate for persons with disabilities is an alarming situation which has turned some of them into beggars in the street.

WIDOWS

LASWIDA - TANZANIA undertakes to empower needy widows in Tanzanian society who, after losing their husbands, who are usually the breadwinner, find themselves in a downward cycle of poverty, unable to support their family or educate their children
