Step One for Kilwa Projects

It is a huge undertaking to start both a tourism company and multiple projects all at once- but this is something we believe in and are passionate about! So we are going for it. All or nothing.

There is a need that community development projects always have and that is partnerships that provide funding and resources to give the projects a boost, especially at the beginning. We are always talking about what we do (and what we hope to do) with people we meet, and sometimes the person is so moved that they want to give a gift. We love those people! Sometimes the person is moved to be involved as a mentor or offer a service that can be useful to our projects. We love those people, too! 

Linked to funding, our step one is land. We have our eyes on a plot of land situated perfectly in our town, and once we acquire it we can not only have a permanent physical address, but we can have an office and classroom for hosting youth leadership trainings- a key part of Thrive Kilwa. Our property will also be used for storage of our watersports gear- important for our Kilwa Adventures tourism activities, as well as Kilwa AquaVenture conservation teaching. This land is important!

Any bookings made with Kilwa Adventures or any donations made to Kilwa Projects will help us reach our 16.2K USD (40.4M TSH) goal 

We are launching our concentrated efforts to acquire this land now, August 2023. We would love to have reached our goal of completing step one by the end of this year. Thank you for any and all support you offer, and thanks for joining us on this journey!
