Child Care Projects
Kanuth Adventure Safaris Ltd Our contribution to children in need.
We are not one of the larger safari tour operators; together with our determination to provide the best, most caring service to our clients, our small outfit is also aware of our social obligations. Every employee, from the CEO to our office workers and safari guides, struggles to ensure that their children are well brought up and educated as much as possible, as far as university, if that is possible. But it is not easy to compete against the big companies without a large amount of capital behind you.
However, we are very aware that our lives are so much easier than those of the many orphans and abandoned children in Tanzania. So we do intend to provide financial support to authentic, genuine grassroots NGOs that specialise in improving the lives of such children. Below you can see some organisations that we support and work with in order to increase that support. We encourage our clients to “pack for a purpose”, and we regularly visit the Kulea Childcare Village in Dar es Salaam, which is on the main route of our southern circuit safari packages. We contribute regularly to support the Kulea Childcare organisation’s village.
Of course, whether or not you choose to safari with us, you can still look at our favoured organisations below, and perhaps you would like to participate in “Pack for a Purpose”, or perhaps make a donation (of any value) to Kulea.
Pack for a Purpose bring a little something with you for Tanzanian children
We are proud members of Pack for a Purpose, an initiative that allows travelers like you to make a lasting impact in the community at your travel destination. If you save just a few kilos of space in your suitcase and take supplies for the projects we support in need, you’ll make a priceless impact in the lives of our local children and families.

Kulea Childcare Villages for orphaned and abandoned children.
Some of our clients wish to support children living in extreme poverty through trusted partners during their visit. If you would like to “Pack for a Purpose,” we can connect you to Kulea Villages for their most current wishlist for babies or children. Kulea Villages works in Tanzania and Kenya to support children and families facing extreme poverty. Through infant support in Tanzania and a child education sponsorship program in both countries, Kulea Villages helps ensure children have access to food, education, and medical care while remaining in safe, stable homes. By walking alongside families, Kulea Villages supports them as they move toward long-term stability and self-sufficiency. Follow them @kuleavillages or visit their website kuleavillages.org.
