Program accomplishments

• KARIMU INTERNATIONAL HELP FOUNDATION ENVISIONS A WORLD WITHOUT POVERTY. OUR MISSION IS TO HELP RURAL COMMUNITIES IN LOW-INCOME COUNTRIES LIFT THEMSELVES OUT OF POVERTY BY TACKLING THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES FACING THE POOR: LACK OF SANITATION AND CLEAN WATER, POOR HEALTH, INADEQUATE EDUCATION, MEAGER INCOME, AND LACK OF FINANCIAL SERVICES. WE ENGAGE DEEPLY WITH COMMUNITIES AND THEIR GOVERNMENTS TO SET PRIORITIES AND DEVISE PROJECTS THAT ADDRESS THESE PROBLEMS. AS A RESULT, SUCH COMMUNITIES CAN NOT ONLY SUSTAIN THEMSELVES, BUT THRIVE. KARIMU BELIEVES THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE UNDERSTAND THEIR NEEDS BETTER THAN OUTSIDERS CAN, SO WE DO NOT IMPOSE SOLUTIONS. WE DECIDE ON PROJECTS TOGETHER, INCLUDING IN OUR DISCUSSIONS THE MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITY MEMBERS: WOMEN, YOUNG PEOPLE, AND THE POOREST OF THE POOR. KARIMU PROVIDES COUNSEL, FUNDING, VOLUNTEERS, AND RESOURCES NEEDED TO HELP THESE COMMUNITIES REACH THEIR GOALS. KARIMU RECOGNIZES THAT POVERTY'S CHALLENGES ARE INTERRELATED AND THAT FOCUSING ON ONE AREA SUCH AS EDUCATION, WATER, OR HEALTH CAN ALLEVIATE POVERTY, BUT NOT ELIMINATE IT. FOR EXAMPLE, INVESTING IN EDUCATION CAN ACHIEVE LITTLE IF CHILDREN LACK ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, AND A NEW CLINIC CANNOT ADDRESS EVERY HEALTH PROBLEM IF PEOPLE MUST DRINK DIRTY WATER. THUS, OUR INTEGRATED APPROACH ADDRESSES THE FIVE CRITICAL MEANS OF RAISING A COMMUNITY OUT OF POVERTY: SANITATION AND CLEAN WATER, HEALTH SERVICES, EDUCATION, INCOME GENERATION, AND FINANCIAL SERVICES. SANITATION AND CLEAN WATER: KARIMU BUILDS COMMUNITY-WIDE, EASILY ACCESSED CLEAN WATER SYSTEMS AND MODERN SCHOOL BATHROOMS SO THAT ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS CAN STAY HEALTHY AND WORK OR ATTEND SCHOOL REGULARLY. HEALTH SERVICES: KARIMU BUILDS HOSPITALS AND DISPENSARIES, RETAINS SKILLED NURSES AND DOCTORS, TEACHES HYGIENE, AND ADMINISTERS VACCINATION CAMPAIGNS. EDUCATION: KARIMU REBUILDS CRUMBLING SCHOOLS AND PROVIDES LEARNING MATERIALS AND HYGIENE SUPPLIES. INCOME GENERATION: KARIMU HELPS THE PEOPLE OF AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITIES BY TEACHING FARMERS TO MOVE BEYOND SUBSISTENCE WITH ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING AND OPPORTUNITIES TO GROW LUCRATIVE CASH CROPS. FINANCIAL SERVICES: KARIMU HELPS COMMUNITY-LED SAVINGS GROUPS BUILD FINANCIAL SECURITY SO THAT EMERGENCIES DO NOT FORCE FAMILIES TO SELL VITAL ASSETS SUCH AS THE COW WHOSE MILK FEEDS THE CHILDREN. FIFTY-NINE VOLUNTEERS LIVING IN 18 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES WORKED WITH THE EIGHT PAID TANZANIAN EMPLOYEES OF KARIMU HEART AND SPIRIT ORGANIZATION TO PLAN, EXECUTE, AND MAINTAIN KARIMU'S PROJECTS. KARIMU INTERNATIONAL HELP FOUNDATION'S OVERHEAD COSTS ARE MINIMAL PRECISELY BECAUSE THE PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR US NEITHER REQUEST NOR RECEIVE ANY MONETARY COMPENSATION. DURING 2025, IN THE AREA OF SANITATION AND CLEAN WATER, KARIMU PROVIDED HYGIENE EDUCATION FOR THE 163 TEACHERS AND APPROXIMATELY 4,500 STUDENTS OF AYALAGAYA WARD AND FOR ARRI WARD'S 4,393 STUDENTS AND 139 TEACHERS. WE MODERNIZED THE BATHROOMS AT TSAAYO SECONDARY SCHOOL, WHOSE 33 TEACHERS SERVE 585 STUDENTS, AND WE BUILT MODERN BATHROOMS, PLUS A LARGE HANDWASHING SINK, FOR ARRI PRIMARY SCHOOL'S 720 STUDENTS AND 16 TEACHERS. IN DABIL WARD WE COMPLETED A THOROUGH ASSESSMENT OF ALL THE EXISTING WATER SOURCES TO PREPARE FOR OUR NEXT MAJOR CONSTRUCTION PROJECT, WHICH WILL BRING CLEAN WATER TO WITHIN 500 METERS OF EVERY HOUSEHOLD, AS WE HAVE ALREADY DONE IN NEIGHBORING AYALAGAYA AND ARRI WARDS. WE CONTINUED TO MONITOR OUR WATER PROJECTS IN AYALAGAYA AND ARRI AND LEARNED TO OUR SATISFACTION THAT THE COMMUNITIES ARE MAINTAINING THOSE PROJECTS PERFECTLY. IN THE AREA OF HEALTH SERVICES, IN 2025 THE KARIMU-BUILT DAREDA KATI HEALTH CENTER AND THE KARIMU-BUILT GAJAL DISPENSARY, BOTH IN AYALAGAYA WARD, TOGETHER GAVE TREATMENT TO OVER 100,000 PEOPLE. MORE THAN 2,500 BABIES WERE BORN SAFELY, INCLUDING MORE THAN 360 WHOSE BIRTHS REQUIRED C-SECTIONS. OVER 20,000 VISITORS TO THE HEALTH CENTER AND THE DISPENSARY RECEIVED FAMILY PLANNING ADVICE. IN ADDITION, THE NEW DENTAL CARE CLINIC SERVED OVER 160 PATIENTS. THE DAREDA KATI HEALTH CENTER WAS FURTHER IMPROVED VIA CONSTRUCTION OF NEW BUILDINGS DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY TO RADIOLOGY, PHARMACEUTICAL OFFERINGS, AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES, RESPECTIVELY. IN ARRI WARD, THE CLINICS SAW MORE THAN 25,000 PATIENTS. FIFTY-FOUR BABIES WERE BORN SAFELY, 12,000 VACCINATIONS WERE ADMINISTERED, AND THERE WERE SOME 3,500 FAMILY PLANNING VISITS. THE CLINICS TESTED 750 PEOPLE FOR SYPHILIS (DETECTING FOUR CASES), PERFORMED HEMOGLOBIN TESTING OF 400 PREGNANT WOMEN, AND TRAINED OVER 6,000 WOMEN IN INFANT AND NEWBORN CARE. HAPPILY, WE WERE ABLE TO CLOSE OUT OUR TUBERCULOSIS PROJECT IN ARRI WARD BECAUSE TB CASES HAVE DECLINED DRASTICALLY THERE. IN DABIL WARD, WHICH IS MUCH POORER THAN ITS NEIGHBORS, TB REMAINS A CONCERN. WE RAN TWO TB CAMPAIGNS, TESTING 265 PEOPLE AND DETECTING 30 CASES. THE DABIL CLINICS TESTED MORE THAN 450 PEOPLE FOR SYPHILIS BUT IDENTIFIED ONLY FIVE CASES, PERFORMED HEMOGLOBIN TESTING FOR OVER 400 PREGNANT WOMEN, AND TRAINED OVER 650 WOMEN IN INFANT AND NEWBORN CARE. FINALLY, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE DABIL WARD SCHOOLGIRLS WHO WERE DETERMINED TO BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE THE VACCINE WAS FULLY IMMUNIZED AGAINST HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS. ANOTHER NEARBY WARD, HIDET, MADE AN URGENT PLEA TO KARIMU TO BUILD A DISPENSARY. OUR ASSESSMENT CONFIRMED THE NEED TO BE SERIOUS, SO WE GRANTED THE REQUEST. THE NEW DISPENSARY IN HIDET WARD WILL SERVE MORE THAN 10,000 PEOPLE. IN 2025, IN THE AREA OF EDUCATION, ALL AYALAGAYA WARD SCHOOLS WERE IN COMPLIANCE WITH KARIMU'S REQUIREMENT TO SUPPLY DAILY LUNCHES FOR ALL THEIR STUDENTS, WHICH HAD BEEN A CONDITION OF BENEFITING FROM OUR RENOVATION AND EXPANSION OF THE SCHOOLS. IN AYALAGAYA WARD MORE THAN 90 PERCENT OF CHILDREN NOW REACH HIGH SCHOOL, AND THE SCHOOLS ALSO MAINTAIN ACADEMIC PARITY BETWEEN BOYS AND GIRLS, EVEN THOUGH ON THE GOVERNMENT-ADMINISTERED GRADE-ADVANCEMENT EXAMS BOYS WERE OUTPERFORMING GIRLS BY 158 PERCENT WHEN KARIMU BEGAN ITS WORK. IN THE AREA OF INCOME GENERATION IN 2025, IN AYALAGAYA WARD, 44 GRADUATES OF OUR ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM INCREASED THEIR INCOMES BY AN AVERAGE OF 183 PERCENT. KARIMU ALSO TRAINED 126 FARMERS IN THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF BIOCHAR, A STABLE, CARBON-RICH FORM OF CHARCOAL PRODUCED BY BURNING ORGANIC WASTE BIOMASS (E.G., WOOD, MANURE, OR CROP RESIDUES) IN A LOW-OXYGEN ENVIRONMENT. THE FARMERS INCREASED THEIR PRODUCTION OF MAIZE, THE LOCAL STAPLE, BY 64 PERCENT, INCREASING THEIR PROFITS BY 70 PERCENT. IN ADDITION, A DOZEN FARMERS PILOTED A CHICKEN PROJECT, YIELDING RESULTS THAT WARRANT EXPANSION. THEY PROFITED BY OVER 40 PER MONTH - A SIGNIFICANT SUM IN RURAL TANZANIA - BY RAISING JUST 25 CHICKENS. IN ARRI WARD, 159 GRADUATES OF OUR ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM INCREASED THEIR INCOMES BY AN AVERAGE OF 105 PERCENT. KARIMU TRAINED 352 FARMERS IN THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF BIOCHAR. THE FARMERS INCREASED THEIR PRODUCTION OF MAIZE BY 79 PERCENT, INCREASING THEIR PROFITS BY 84 PERCENT. SIXTY FARMERS LEARNED TO RAISE CHICKENS COMMERCIALLY. IN DABIL WARD, KARIMU TRAINED 454 FARMERS TO PRODUCE AND USE BIOCHAR. AS FOR FINANCIAL SERVICES, IN 2025 IN AYALAGAYA WARD, KARIMU SUCCEEDED IN RAISING THE PORTION OF HOUSEHOLDS BELONGING TO A SAVINGS GROUP TO 22 PERCENT, WITH THE AVERAGE ANNUAL SAVINGS PER MEMBER RISING TO 97 PERCENT. TO CONCLUDE, WITH AN EYE TO GROWING OUR DONOR BASE, KARIMU CONTINUED ITS PRACTICE OF ORGANIZING ADULT VOLUNTEER TRIPS AND FAMILY TRIPS TO THE VILLAGES WE SERVE. ON OUR JULY 2025 ADULT TRIP, 18 VOLUNTEERS FROM EIGHT DIFFERENT COUNTRIES HELPED WITH 36 KARIMU PROJECTS. DURING THE SUBSEQUENT FAMILY TRIP, 13 ADULTS AND 13 CHILDREN FROM THREE DIFFERENT COUNTRIES IMMERSED THEMSELVES IN THE LIVES OF THE VILLAGERS AS WELL AS IN KARIMU'S WORK.
