Furthermore, during this time, the guests would be welcome to buy food supplies or stationary items that they may want to donate to Neema. All of this is optional.
After arrival at the school, you will be welcomed by the Neema International team who will provide you with an introduction about the organization and its background. Mandy Stein, Neema International’s Founder and Executive Director, has dedicated more than ten years of her life to protecting children in the Uru Community and providing them with quality education, healthcare, and unconditional love.
From humble beginnings, we have stayed true to that mission and have helped to
positively transform the lives of young people across Tanzania.
