Organisations We Have Worked With
Why Partner With BNF?
Youth Talent & Livelihoods
Young people in Dar es Salaam who had no outlet and no income have found their voice, their talent, and their livelihood through BNF's Nimujo Edutainment Center the arts groups BNF has supported with instruments, training, and costumes are now performing professionally and earning independently.
Â
Women Building Economic Independence
Women who were economically invisible- widows, single mothers, women living with HIV have built sustainable livelihoods through BNF-led initiatives, gaining not just income but dignity and independence.
Â
Connecting Farmers to Financial Services
Cashew nut farmers in Mtwara who once lived entirely at the mercy of the harvest season now have savings accounts, financial plans, and a relationship with a bank because BNF mobilised them and walked with them through the process.
Â
Parents Driving Better Learning
Thousands of parents in Mtwara, Unguja, and Pemba are more engaged in their children's education following BNF's community advocacy work across 70 primary schools because someone sat with them, performed for them, and showed them why it mattered.
Â
Breaking the Silence on Gender-Based Violence
Communities in Rukwa and Mtwara are having open conversations about gender-based violence that were unthinkable before BNF and WiLDAF brought the issue into public forums through performance and dialogue.
Â
Bringing Ancestral Heritage Home
Descendant families of colonial-era leaders in Kilimanjaro and Meru are, for the first time in over a century, closer to bringing their ancestors home because BNF is on the ground as implementing partner for the Marejesho repatriation initiative.
