About Us
Read Our Story
A local organisation working with the community, for the community
Spark of Progress is a registered non-governmental organisation based in Leganga, Usa River, in the Arusha region of Tanzania. We started from a simple belief: every child, woman and young person in our community deserves the chance to learn, grow and lead.
We work closely with families, schools, village leaders and partners to design practical programs that respond to real needs. Each program is planned so that the community can continue it on its own over time.
Our Mission
To empower vulnerable children, women and youth through education, skills and community-led development.
Our Vision
Thriving, self-reliant communities in Arusha and beyond, where every person can reach their full potential.
Our Programs
Four program areas serving Usa River
Our programs are connected. Supporting a child in school, a mother with a small business and a clean water point in the same village helps the whole household move forward.
Women's Empowerment
Skills training, entrepreneurship and leadership for economic independence.
