Twelve years ago, I never could have imagined the ways that my first trip to Tanzania would shape my life, my values, what I stand for, and my career. That trip ignited my passion to advocate for the most vulnerable of society.
TFFT was born out of a desire to provide orphans and vulnerable children access to quality education. Twelve years ago, at four years old, Helena, Yusufu and Matayo were our first recipients of scholarships. This was before The Foundation For Tomorrow’s name was created, any organization was formed, or any plans of what and who we would become.
Today we have a Scholarship Program that provides access to quality education opportunities for 114 scholars. While we have grown to incorporate teacher training and life skills development, our paramount program has been–and will always be–the Scholarship Program.
These children are our legacy.
Their success, is our success!
This program is also our most personal program because the impact is tied to the personal ambitions and interests of the individuals who make up our Scholarship Program.
In 2016 we welcomed 18 new scholars, all of whom NEED sponsors to support and help us nurture them as they navigate through their primary and secondary education.
For $125 a month you can provide one of our primary (elementary) school scholars with a quality education, room and board, school supplies and uniform, and other basic needs! It’s a transformation for the most vulnerable of society, and you have the opportunity to be that impact!
We accept scholars based solely on need. Through our Community Identification Process and using the Progress Out of Poverty Index, we rate each applicant and their family’s vulnerability and select children into our program based on who has the greatest need for our support.
Our sponsors provide hope for the future that otherwise seems impossible. Please consider joining TFFT’s family in this meaningful way by making this commitment to a child in need.

If you join us as a sponsor, you will receive profile information for the specific scholar you sponsor as well as grade reports and updates on their progress. This is such a meaningful way to a become part of TFFT’s impact.
In Service,
