From the Co-Founders 2

When we started EfforTZ, we made the

decision to fund the education of our

scholarship students for their entire

academic careers. We felt anything less would

be to abandon these young people before they had

reached their full potential.

When we made this decision, we knew we would

need your help. Today, we know we made the right

decision because you have been with us every step of

the way.

You’ve shown you’re as committed to these young

people as we are. For that, we’re filled with gratitude!

Bebe & Fred Dudley, Mary Dupont & Sheryl Seyfert

Mission 3

Our Mission is to provide a quality education

to the poorest children of Tanzania. We do this by

providing four types of assistance:

• Scholarships to orphaned boys, Maasai

girls (who would otherwise be married off at

12 or 13 for the dowry), and other

impoverished children.

• School supplies to public schools that

lack the most basic educational materials.

• Books to create libraries in schools.

• Volunteers to provide classroom

enrichment activities in public primary schools.

Reviews by Sponsors & Friends 13

“EfforTZ is one of the best nonprofits in Tanzania. I have

known EfforTZ, its founders and some of the students they sponsor for six

years. During this period I have observed how EfforTZ has managed to change

the lives of these children…” -Mathias L. Bali, teacher in Tanzania and U.S.,

EfforTZ Sponsor and Volunteer

“EfforTZ has changed lives in my village of Eluai…In the

past three years, EfforTZ brought a light to my village and now young girls who

were being married by their parents are now being saved by EfforTZ…”

-Merege, Maasai from the village of Eluai, Tanzania

“We have been sponsoring a child in this program since

it's inception and it has been wonderful to watch the boy we sponsor grow

into a young man. He sends us letters about all the things he is learning and

telling us how much he appreciates our sponsorship…”

-Ellen Russo, Sponsor
