Project TEMBO gives girls an opportunity to go to
school and empowers women to start their own
businesses in the villages of Longido and
Kimokouwa, Tanzania.

 In
Northern Tanzania, living in a patriarchal
society, women have limited opportunities
for employment and very few rights.
 The annual income for families in Tanzania
is $280.00 – the cost for one girl to go to
secondary school is $250.00. This barely
leaves enough money for basic food and
shelter needs.
 Girls who do not go to school are married
off to older men by their fathers and begin
child bearing immediately.
