Roseline Mushi
I am Roseline Mushi, born in Kilimanjaro and raised in a community where women bore significant responsibilities. During my early years, I often missed school to work and support my family. However, with my aunt’s dedicated support, I continued my education despite her own financial burdens. Upon completing secondary school, I entered college, though financial constraints prevented me from obtaining my certificate. Later, through a volunteering opportunity, I met a friend from Germany who generously paid my fees, allowing me to receive both my certificate and diploma, which was a dream come true.
Driven by these experiences, I founded an NGO in 2022 to support women and children from disadvantaged backgrounds. We started with a small group of women, eventually establishing a daycare to provide a safe environment for children while their mothers pursued education or work. I firmly believe that empowering one individual uplifts an entire community, and that through collaboration, we can create lasting societal change. My vision is to expand our impact by building a larger learning center to equip women with valuable skills and a dedicated school for children graduating from our daycare. By uniting our efforts, I am confident we can transform our communities and inspire change worldwide.
The foundation has been running for a while but it just got their license officially on
January 2023.
What do you hope to achieve?
I would like in the future to have a bigger organization and better school for the kids
What do you need help with ?
I would love to have more staff and volunteers to help out .
Anything you want to add?
"Sharing is caring ....Together we can ."
