Neema Village Tanzania, Inc, is a 501(c)3 registered non-profit in the USA and a registered NGO in Tanzania.  Neema in Swahili means Grace and any good done has been done by the Abundant Grace of God!

Neema Village began as a rescue center for abandoned, orphaned and at risk babies in Arusha, Tanzania, East Africa. During that time, hundreds of babies have been rescued, many abandoned babies have now been adopted through the Tanzania Social Welfare system and others who had lost their mothers during the birth were saved and have now been able to return home to an extended family member. We love the idea of “Families not Orphanages.”

Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They are easier to ignore before you see their faces. It is easier to pretend they’re not real before you hold them in your arms. But once you do, everything changes.
