Jifundishe is a small, Tanzanian nonprofit that funds and manages projects for community development by providing educational opportunities. Jifundishe is the Kiswahili word for "to teach yourself." We believe in creating change for the community, and especially young women, through collaboration and both formal and informal education.
Each of GlobalGiving’s nonprofit partners is required to send quarterly donor reports detailing the impact of their work. Here are some of their recent updates:
