About the Bahati Project
The Bahati Project is a Canadian project that currently supports Tengeru Village Development Centre, in Tengeru, which is just outside of Arusha, Tanzania. The Bahati Project started in 2013 after various trips taken by Anne-Marie, Megan and Jenn to Tanzania. They fell in love with the people and the culture and couldn't return to their "normal" lives without committing to help better the lives of this beautiful community.
The Bahati Project originally started by supporting three projects in Arusha - Tengeru Village (Meru View at the time), Pippi House Safe Home for Girls and the Newlands Orphanage. The Bahati Project has evolved to solely supporting Tengeru Village Development Centre as other external supports diminished throughout the years shifting our ability to support all three projects to only being able to support one. The Bahati Project now fully supports the Tengeru Village Development Centre's facility, staff, meals, education, and more through donations, sponsorships and funds raised at various local events.
The co-founders of The Bahati Project have been to Tanzania multiple times, and absolutely love Arusha and surrounding areas. The people are so kind, welcoming, and truly beautiful. The landscape is unbelievable with views of Mount Meru and of course Mount Kilimanjaro. The children at Tengeru and across Tanzania greet you with open arms and huge smiles.
