We rent a school building at the village Usa River close to Arusha. At this school, we teach and take care of kids between 6 months and 7 years. It also serves as a daycare center, so their mothers can earn a living without worrying about their kids.
We provide 2 free meals a day, clean drinking water, school material and custom-tailored homework assignments for each student.
My name is Elijah, I am 5 years old and I love to sing and dance.
I am supposed to start my primary education soon. For this, I will need someone to sponsor me so we can afford the school fee, uniforms, shoes, stationery and other basic needs. If you sponsor my education, you won’t regret it. I promise to study hard and be a good boy as I am.
Please reach out to New Stars in case you want to support me.
My name is Trevor, I am a 5 years old strong and handsome boy. I would like to thank my mom who has been doing everything to make me happy. My dad abandoned us when I was 2 months old. He was always beating my mom and he was a womanizer. My mother used to carry me on her back, looking for a job in people’s houses, like washing clothes. But people refused to offer her a job because of me.
They were asking her how she would work with a small kid. So we slept hungry without food and other basic needs. My mother talked to New Stars to take me in so that she can work, and they said yes. As you can see, I am now strong thanks to the love I get. I pray for our school to keep growing and help others like me.
My name is Glory. I am a strong 3 years old girl. I believe I can do everything well like my big brothers at my school. My teacher gives me assignments and I solve them with determination. I believe if you support my daily life and education, I will study hard and make you proud. Ahsante sana.

Hello everyone, my name is Elisa. I am 6 months old and my home is New Stars. My mum was welcomed to the foundation the first day it was founded.

The New Stars women empowerment program helped my mum recover and it has given her education on entrepreneurship. My grandma is old and diabetic, so life is not easy for us.

Often we did not find any. The neighbors saw what we were going through, reported it to village elders so we were taken to New Stars Foundation. We shifted and started staying there. They gave us love, food, education and shelter. Ahsante sana.
