About Jiamini
Jiamini started as a non-profit scholarship fund for vulnerable students and was registered in Tanzania in 2011. Four friends founded the organization with a commitment to providing support to children in need. We operate within the Tanzanian educational system to change the lives of our students, improve school facilities, and support the government in its education goals. We rely on local teachers, education officials, and our students’ families as full partners to ensure local ownership of all activities.

Our organization was founded on a core scholarship program that has since grown into working with primary and secondary schools across the Mtwara region and supporting more than 100 students each year at all stages of their education. We work closely with each of the students in our scholarship and other outreach programs. Knowing their individual academic and familial circumstances ensures we can offer support in whatever area they need.

About The Team
The Jiamini team is small and agile. Composed of the four founders, a Senior Program Officer and an Academic Officer in Newala, and a group of student teachers and tutors – we work efficiently to maximize the impact our programming has on the community in Newala and the government schools in the Mtwara region. Each team member provides unique talents and assets that are critical to the success of our organization. We have fun and support one another. Our work is guided by integrity, trust, and heart.
