Adventure With Purpose. Impact With Heart.

Together, we support vulnerable children, empower women, and strengthen Tanzanian communities — one safari, one project, one life at a time

We Bring Hope to Tanzania’s Most Vulnerable Communities

Safaris With A Heart is a Tanzanian nonprofit that identifies and supports people living in extreme hardship — including orphans, disabled individuals, families without homes, and children struggling to stay in school.

Our volunteer safaris combine life-changing community work with unforgettable adventure, creating long-term impact where it’s needed most.

We partner with local leaders to provide

Support for Orphans & Vulnerable Children

Clothing, school supplies, food support, mentorship, and safe shelter.

Health Insurance for Families in Need

We enroll the poorest families in NHIF/community insurance programs so they can access hospitals safely.

Finding Those Often Forgotten

We use a strong community network across Tanzania to reach people who truly need urgent help. We receive referrals through:

Transforming Lives Through Purposeful Travel

At Safaris With A Heart, we believe that travel can be more than just a vacation—it can be a life-changing experience that impacts both the traveler and the communities they visit. 

Our charity initiatives focus on uplifting Tanzanian communities by addressing critical needs in education, healthcare, and community development. From constructing safe homes for Maasai families with disabled children to providing cleft palate/lip surgeries for children ostracized due to birth defects, our projects aim to bring love, light, hope, and joy to those most in need. 

We also support local orphanages by providing medical insurance for infants and staff, ensuring they receive necessary medical care. Our efforts extend to distributing solar lights to families without electricity, enabling children to study after dark and improving overall safety.

Through these initiatives, we strive to create sustainable change and empower communities to become self-sufficient.

Our Work Across Communities

Your support brings real change to families across Tanzania:

Education & Orphan Support

We provide school uniforms, desks, books, dignity kits, and classroom repairs. More than 500 children, including many orphans, now learn in safer, cleaner environments.

Homes & Toilets for Vulnerable Families

Volunteers are the heart of our impact. Whether building houses, teaching, or providing medical help, our volunteers bring hope and help to remote communities in Tanzania.

Health Insurance & Disability Support

We cover annual health insurance for at-risk families, including children with chronic conditions and adults with disabilities. We also support mobility needs and connect patients to hospitals for treatment.

Women & Community Empowerment

Small grants help women start micro-businesses, support their children, and become self-reliant.
