Art in Tanzania's Mission Statement: Volunteering and adventure tours in Tanzania. Helping poor and underprivileged. Supporting arts and music.
To enhance the livelihood of the rural villages, orphans, women and tribal people as the Masai tribe. We also perform environmental projects as introducing fire bricks made of waste materials to avoid forest cutting for charcoal. We operate in grass root level so the work is easy to attend to all volunteers. We finance our operations with the small profits from the attending volunteers as well as from our other financial resources as from meaningful safaris.
