We try wherever possible to sustainably finance our projects through sponsorships. Nevertheless, we still rely on one-off donations for construction, major purchases, unexpected needs, running costs and more. We are infinitely grateful for any donations, large or small, and assure our supporters that they go exactly where they are needed.
Make a difference by donating!
Donations can be made via our partner associations Kupanda e.V. and Mabawa Tanzania. The donations will be forwarded to us in full and used in accordance with the specified purpose. It is best to contact us before making a donation, especially if you require a donation receipt. Our e-mail address is [email protected]. When making a donation, please always ensure that a clear reference is given in the bank transfer so that we know what the donation is to be used for. For a general donation, the name of the relevant project is sufficient.
Please also have a look at the links to our online fundraisers, where you can donate directly to our projects via Paypal or credit card.

What happens with my donation?
All donations, whether made via our partner associations or directly to us, are used entirely to support our projects. None of the organization leaders receive a salary from their work for L.I.F.E. and our partner associations also work on a voluntary basis.
We use general donations where they are most needed. For example, to continue the construction of our Community Center, to pay the salaries of our teachers and caregivers and other running costs of the institution(s). If money is donated for a specific purpose, e.g. a new piece of play equipment or the purchase of food, then the money is spent exclusively for this purpose. If there is any money left over, we discuss its use with our donors. Transparency and credibility are very important to us and we are happy to answer any questions on the subject!
Donations in kind are usually handed over to us on site so that the donors can see for themselves exactly how they are used. If we receive donations in kind from elsewhere, we also make sure that the donors receive a picture so that they know that their donation has arrived at the project.
Thank you very much for your support!
