Our story

Born from listening.

Malka Foundation Helper was established on 5 June 2024 by a small group of Tanzanians who had seen, again and again, how women and children carry the weight of discrimination, poverty and silence.

We started with a simple promise: connect with the community first, listen to the people most affected, and only then act. From that promise grew our work in anti-violence advocacy, reproductive health education, civic rights training, and grassroots economic activities like agriculture and animal husbandry.

Our long-term vision is shared with the people we serve — to see Tanzania become a society with sustainable development.

What we stand on

Our values.

Equality first

We stand against every form of gender discrimination — especially the systems that silence women and children.

Community-led

Our programs are designed with the people who will live with them, not for them.

Sustainable by design

Education, agriculture and livelihoods that keep producing long after a project ends.

Transparent always

We publish what we do, how we spend and what we learn — every year.

How we work

A practical approach.

01

Connect

We meet communities where they are — in villages, schools and households.

02

Empower

Through training, civic education and capacity building for women and youth.

03

Sustain

Through agriculture, livelihoods and environmental stewardship that endures.
