Our name is inspired by the Swahili word for "shine on," and our work is focused on enabling kids to 'shine on' through education. We hope that after learning more about our project, you join in our effort to change the world, one child at a time, with the gift of education!

Our Mission:
The Waka Waka Project is administered by Edpowerment and was established to help and empower the disadvantaged and vulnerable children of Karanga Village in Tanzania by facilitating better education opportunities. Our goal is to foster -through quality education- the capacity for these young children to become adults, parents, and leaders who bring lasting change to their community.
