Providing a home and support for orphaned and street children in Tanzania.

ONETrack International provides support to the UPENDO Foundation where our partners are helping children out of poverty by providing hope for the future, a safe, loving, and nurturing environment, nourishing food and a quality education.

The center creates a safe refuge for vulnerable children and provides support until children are ready to transition to life in the community. UPENDO children sadly all have distressing backgrounds ranging from physical and sexual abuse, abandonment, hardship and some are orphaned from the effects of HIV and AIDS pandemic. Some children arrive with long-term health problems, some with psychological scars, some undernourished during their first three years of life and may suffer from lifetime lowered brain function. We strive every day to provide these children a better future and hope as they grow up they will make a positive contribution to their community and break that cycle of poverty.
