Overcoming poverty through education…One child at a time.

House Program:
The House of Blue Hope's main program is our housing program.  We support a minimum of ten boys at a time and they live in our facility with the support of several staff members and volunteers.   The housing program not only includes the basic necessities such as shelter, food, water, clothes and school fees.  We have also set up educational programs in addition to school learning such as hygiene, computer class, sex education if old enough, testing for std/HIV (which may have been transmitted from child's mother), sports and recreation and additional English classes.

Outreach Program:
The House of Blue Hope Outreach program supports street children that have family, but are still in need of aid to be successful in school.  We provide the necessary supplies for schooling:  books, pens, pencils, workbooks, uniforms and solar powered lamps.  We also provide the support from our staff and volunteers.  In some cases, we will pay for the children's school fees.  
     
Special Cases:
Because of our presence in the community and continuing effort to make ourselves and our mission known in Dar es Salaam, sometimes a child will find him or herself at our door in need of help.  If we are able to help, we take the child on as a special case.  Sometimes this can be as simple as giving them pencils for school while other times it means we support a youth through vocational training.
