Siringit Migration Camp
Pack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description
We support Baraa Primary School in Arusha, Tanzania, a government school with over 2,500 students, many from challenging backgrounds. Our support ranges from providing practical needs (such as electricity, firewood, and exam printing) to connecting the school with volunteers and intern-teachers. We also create opportunities beyond the classroom through extracurricular activities, a first-aid room, and projects like our menstrual health program.
