Mission Statement
The Tanzania Teaching Foundation (TTF) began as and continues to be a mission of Gloria Dei Lutheran Church. TTF is dedicated to improving the lives of individuals, families, and communities in Tanzania through a targeted education program. Our Pre-Form 1 English program enrolls students who are about to enter secondary school (high school), where the medium of instruction is English. The program gives students the necessary skills to succeed and excel in secondary school. The Pre-Form 1 English program is "teaching them to fish" - so that they will develop culturally relevant solutions for the challenges facing their society. TTF works to sustain long-term relationships with members of the Manow community and to enrich the lives of both Tanzanians and our American volunteers.
Description
Our Goals
* Expand access to education through targeted English and STEM instruction.
* Empower local teachers with resources and training.
* Build sustainable partnerships with the Tanzanian community to support long-term educational development.

Since its inception, TTF has:
* Graduated nearly 500 students from the Pre-Form 1 program, many of whom have gone on to excel in secondary school and earn university degrees in fields such as medicine, engineering, and education.
* Partnered with local schools to share resources, enhance teaching practices, and strengthen community ties.
* Maintained a dedicated network of volunteers and donors who share our vision of empowerment through education.
