Sister Theo has made this effort possible with her unwavering dedication to the children of Ibumila. Her kindness and commitement to making her community better uplift everyone around her. The success of TEP is due to the heart and hard work of Sister Theo. We are forever greatful and inspired by everything she has done.

Anwarite

Anwarite

Anwarite was the first student in TEP. She started when she was just 11 years old. She has grown up to be a kind, smart, and confident young woman who will graduate university in July 2026, a feat that less than 3% of Tanzanian girls achieve. Her success has inspired everyone involved with TEP. Anwarite has grown into a leader of her community and we can't wait to see what she does next.
