Tanzania

Camp Joshua is a facility run by the LOHADA organization providing care for youth age 7 to 17. Their mission is to protect children against social-economic destitution caused by the death of their care givers, prostitution, neglectful behavior, divorce or separation, and sicknesses such as HIV and AIDS.

The facilities at Camp Joshua are in need of repairs and maintenance. More information regarding the specific nature of the work we will be conducting onsite will be available closer to departure.
