Our Team

The Small Things has always been focused on empowering community members to solve their own problems in a sustainable way, and keeping the children in our care deeply embedded in their community. For that reason, 100% of our permanent program staff are Tanzanian, and most grew up in this very village! “Mzungu” (foreign) staff and volunteers serve as a support system for the local team – mobilizing support worldwide, lending expertise where we can, and learning from the community as we go.
