Who We Are & What We Stand For

Restoring Dignity, Hope &
Brighter Futures in Tanzania

Yatima Group Trust Fund is a dedicated non-profit organization supporting orphans and vulnerable children through education, healthcare, and family empowerment.

OUR IDENTITY & BACKGROUND

Built From a Deep Passion to Uplift Vulnerable Children

Headquartered in Dar es Salaam, Yatima Group Trust Fund (YGTF) was established to provide a reliable, transparent safety net for orphaned and vulnerable children who face acute poverty, lack of parental care, and severe educational barriers.

We believe that every child—regardless of social background—possesses inherent dignity and the right to reach their full potential. Through comprehensive programs spanning tuition sponsorships, nutrition, and foster caregiver support, we turn despair into lifelong achievement.
