Story

TCRP's Goal: To raise S$25,000 (£13,000) to purchase a larger farm for Amani Children's Home.

(more info at www.thechainreactionproject.com)


Imagine a child living on the streets of one of the world's poorest countries, exposed to hunger, fear and danger  - that's what 2.5 million children live with everyday in Tanzania.


Meaning peace in Swahili, Amani Children’s Home is dedicated to the protection of Tanzania’s most vulnerable population: street children and AIDS orphans. 

 

Because many of the children have been physically and sexually abused, they are cautious about trusting adults. 

 

Amani Street Educators take time to build a friendship with the children, telling them that there is a safe place where they will be fed and protected, given clothing, an education and love. 

 

The children make a decision for themselves to accept the offer of rescue and to come to Amani.

 

Now the home, needs your help.

 

Singapore based adventure philanthropy initiative The Chain Reaction Project - is raising funds to make a difference in the lives of the Amani children by taking part in 3 stage extreme adventure challenge the Kili[MAN]jaro.

 

S$25,000 will purchase a larger farm for Amani Children's Home, allowing the orphanage -

 

- to grow enough maize and other crops to use throughout the year

 

- to raise animals (cows, goats, chickens) for food, extra income (selling eggs, chicks, etc.) 

 

- to teach the children animal husbandry (an essential skill in Tanzania)

 

- to use as a transition home for older Amani youth who can learn to manage a small farm before going out ontheir own

 

Amani’s mission to rescue homeless children from the dangers of life on the street would not be possible without the support of concerned individuals such as you. 

 

Your generosity has the power to restore hope to vulnerable children.

 

Together we are transforming lives, one child at a time.


We realize and accept that ultimately, if you choose to support our cause, you will give what makes sense to you. 

 

We appreciate any amount you choose to give.

 

With much Love & Appreciation,

 

TCRP & Co.
