The African Education Society Inc. (AES) was established to support learning and life skills education of street Children in Dar-Es-Salaam, Tanzania that will allow them to engage in economic activities and build healthy and productive lives for themselves.
The priority is to establish a life-skills education centre by the year 2010, however, following a visit to the project in July 2008, the AES saw the urgent need to build a dormitory for the girl-mothers (young girls with babies) as soon as possible.
- Vision: For street children to participate effectively in the Tanzanian community through access to education, health awareness and sustainable work opportunities.
- Mission: To provide financial assistance to develop programs for the street children of Dar-Es-Salaam to enable them to have right choices, skills and opportunities to make a better life for themselves.
