The Oreteti Foundation is dedicated to a clear mission: to empower communities through education, building resilience and reducing poverty to improve long term outcomes for future generations. We believe that local stability begins with a strong educational foundation.

By contributing to our general fund, you support our ongoing efforts to provide the resources necessary for effective learning and community growth. Your gift allows us to respond to immediate needs while maintaining our focus on long term poverty reduction. Data shows that every year of additional schooling can significantly increase an individual's future earning potential and community stability.

Your support directly enables these vital programs to continue. We invite you to join us in this investment in a more resilient future.

Become an Advocate Today!

Our Oreteti Advocates support our mission to empower pastoralist communities through education. Each year, students need supplies, uniforms, and transportation from their villages to the schools. For $36 per month, you will support one student’s ability to attend school.
Transportation: Many students live long distances from the school. Without transportations, they are unable to attend school. For $8 per month, you will support the transportation necessary to being students to the school.
Sanitary Items: Due to gender bias and a lack of comprehensive healthcare, girls in pastoralist communities often have a shortage of sanitary items. For $10 per year, you will support the school’s ability to have feminine sanitary supplies available for its students.
Desks: There is a lack of education funding within Tanzania. This leads to school supplies and equipment being stretched amongst several students. Schools are in desperate need of desks, which helps facilitate student learning throughout the year. For $42, you will supply one desk to the school.
