Big Five Tanzania is a nonprofit organization seeking to improve the quality of life for people living in Tanzania, Africa. We make a difference one person at a time through scholarships and financial support in five key areas. We invest in people.

Our partnership

U.S.-based volunteers focus on fund raising, and Tanzanian operations facilitate grant applications. Together, we are partners for opportunity.

Join our global team today to make an immediate impact and lasting difference in a person’s life, family, and community. 

Why Tanzania?

Tanzania may be best known for Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest point, but it’s also among the world’s poorest nations, where population growth continues to outstrip economic gains. More people means more stress on a developing infrastructure and more mouths competing for limited food and water supplies.  

We aim to support five big needs of Tanzanian people:

  1. Education

  2. Entrepreneurship

  3. Healthcare

  4. Food sustainability

  5. Access to clean water
