PREVIOUS PROJECTS

Water Tank construction at Ihanda primary school Karagwe

With cooperation from Engineers without Borders Sweden, the community and the Karagwe district Council, KARUDECA constructed an above the ground rain water harvesting tank at Ihanda Primary schools in Karagwe District Karagwe Tanzania. The tank serves a community of 400 students and 20 teachers to get safe drinking water at school. This serves their time and now they have enough time to study rather than going some kilometres to fetch water.

Financial Education project

In partnership with SBFIC Germany, KARUDECA implemented a financial education project in the Karagwe district of Tanzania. This initiative, conducted from 2018 to 2019, reached approximately 10,000 students across five primary schools and six secondary schools. The curriculum covered crucial financial and saving skills aimed at preparing students for the future. Key topics included saving, responsible consumption, family budgeting, distinguishing between needs and wants, and understanding credit.

World saving week 2016, 2017 and 2018

Again, with partnership from SBIFIC and TPB Bank, KARUDECA implemented a world saving week in Karagwe Tanzania. During the week, the team from SBFIC, KARUDECA and TPB bank visited 30 schools both primary and secondary to sensitize students, parents, teachers and the general community about the importance of saving. About 30,000 people from Karagwe and the neighbouring districts got time to learn about saving skills and financial education. Mass media including local radios, newspapers and Televisions were used to disseminate the knowledge.

Poultry Project.

KARUDECA, in collaboration with SBFIC, initiated a poultry project involving school children at Chanika Primary School in Karagwe, Tanzania. This project was designed to cultivate entrepreneurial and saving skills among the young students in Karagwe. By engaging the children in hands-on poultry farming activities, the initiative aimed to provide them with practical business experience and financial literacy. Additionally, the project had the added benefit of helping the pupils meet their educational needs, ensuring they had the necessary resources for their schooling. Through this dual approach, the program sought to empower the children with essential life skills while also supporting their academic progress.
