Support us to alleviate poverty and hardship in Lindi. With your help we can break the cycle of deprivation faced by families through providing education, vocational training and supporting ad hoc projects on the ground.

Friends of Lindi are small enough to know every person we support, but with your help are big enough to make a huge difference to a generation.

Please give what you can.

The following are examples of what we can buy:

  • £5 – lunch money for one week
  • £8 – a set of exercise books
  • £10 – one pair of school shoes or a school bag
  • £10 – a solar lamp for night time study
  • £20 – a basic school uniform
  • £25 – one pair of prescription reading glasses
  • £40 – a set of textbooks to enable home study
  • £75 – a sewing machine
  • £100 – an electric sewing machine
  • £130 – a child’s wheelchair for access to primary education
  • £170 – a one year course at Vocational College
  • £250 – 180 reading books for a street library

With minimal costs to support our charity, more than 98% of donations to Friends of Lindi go directly to projects. 

We can respond to urgent needs identified by our trusted partners in Lindi. Our close contact and association mean we can monitor progress and check outcomes, and report back through updates on our website. 

Your donation helps make this work possible.

We manage our donations using People’s Fundraising as they offer lower fees than other donation hosts, so more of your money goes towards helping the community in Lindi and occasionally beyond,in rural Tanzania.
