TGFT Girls Center & Milembe Dorm Construction

We are excited to share that the Africa Schoolhouse team has successfully completed construction of The Girls Foundation of Tanzania's (TGFT) new Girls Center in Arusha! After a little over a year and a half of dedicated work, the team has brought to life a beautiful and functional space that includes:

  • Girls’ residence with a kitchen, dining room, lounge, and two bedroom wings
  • Administrative office building
  • Housing for the Director and volunteers
  • Library, classrooms, and public restrooms
  • Guard house and recreational fields

Designed by Scattergood Design, the thoughtful architecture ensures a safe, comfortable, and environmentally conscious space for the girls. Girls will be moving to the compound this January!

After a well-deserved break, the team will return to Mwanza to begin construction on the new Milembe Girls’ Dormitory in January. Currently, over fifty girls are staying in the Milembe Dining Hall while they eagerly await the new dormitory. We can’t wait to see them settle into their new home away from home!

Thank you for your continued support! Your generosity enables Africa Schoolhouse to do this work. Together, we are helping create brighter futures for children in Tanzania!

Milembe Girls excited for the new dormitory!
