Outreach Eye and Dental In response to urgent appeals, particularly from women in the village, seeking medical support, we recognized a critical need, with the nearest dispensary located over 30 kilometers away, posing a significant risk in cases of urgent medical requirements. To address this, we successfully secured a donor and established a collaborative effort with the community, agreeing on local contributions encompassing equipment, staffing, and post-construction financial commitments. The planning process involved active engagement with both the community and local authorities to ensure the dispensary’s design and services met the specific needs of the area. Following meticulous planning and execution, we are pleased to announce that in January 2024, the dispensary was officially handed over to the community. This achievement not only addresses the immediate healthcare needs of the villagers but also stands as a testament to the collaborative and sustainable approach we embrace in our mission to enhance the well-being of communities. Support our vision We invite individuals and organizations to join hands in supporting our vision and mission for transformative change in the Kilimanjaro Region. Our vision is to create thriving communities through sustainable development in the sectors of health, education, and infrastructure. Get Involved
Kibosho Hospital Support
Kibosho Hospital Support For over 30 years, Aktionskreis Ostafrika e.V. Bavaria, Germany, has been steadfastly supporting Kibosho Hospital. This legacy of commitment continues through AKO TANZANIA COMMUNITY SUPPORT. Our contributions span the development of specialized clinics, including eye and tooth clinics, from the ground up. German doctors have played a pivotal role, not only in training and supporting new medical professionals but also offering valuable guidance on adopting state-of-the-art equipment. As a result, these departments now stand among the region’s finest. In 2019, we successfully completed the construction of a new building for the emergency unit, marking a significant milestone. Presently, our focus extends to the education and empowerment of medical staff, ensuring the continuous enhancement of healthcare services. Notably, in 2022, we undertook a crucial initiative to renew the power supply equipment, contributing to the hospital’s operational efficiency. These endeavors represent just a glimpse of our diverse range of activities aimed at fortifying the healthcare landscape and making lasting contributions to the well-being of the community.
