Maasai Partners approach

Under Ngorongoro Community Network, which was founded in January 2011, Maasai Partners (MP) works to promote health, education, welfare, and economic development focusing on the Arusha region of northern Tanzania. To combat the extreme poverty in the region, we foster and support a variety of grassroots programs.

We believe the most successful development programs rely on the villagers themselves to determine what is most necessary for their own success. We collaborate with the villagers, identifying the resources needed to further community development. MP networks and collaborates with area nonprofits to establish effective programs within the villages, while providing independent support.
