Dedicated to Sustaining the Development and Success of the Margery Wolf Kuhn (MWK) Schools
Our Impact
The Tanzania Education Fund works to enrich the lives of young people. TEF supports the development and success of the Margery Wolf Kuhn (MWK) Preschool, Primary, and Secondary Schools which serve the children of Eastern Tanzania.
TEF relies on individual, organizational, and government contributions and maintains a low overhead. 98% percent of funds go directly to MWK and the students it serves.
Our Mission
Provide a broad educational experience grounded in Tanzanian culture and tradition that prepares graduates to participate fully in the continued development of their country.
Our Goal
Make education accessible for the young people of Tanzania who would not otherwise have the opportunity.
Our Board
The TEF Board works with the MWK Trustees, a Tanzanian board that directly supervises the schools. TEF, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, is based in Vienna, Virginia, U.S.A. MWK schools are in Bagamoyo, Tanzania.
