Dear colleagues, stakeholders, partners, friends, and beneficiaries of Kasulu Youth Development (KaYD),

Welcome to the official website of Kasulu Youth Development (KaYD). Here, you can learn more about our organization, our mission, and the work we are doing to transform lives in our communities.

Kasulu Youth Development (KaYD) was founded in 2010 by 30 members and formally registered the same year under the Societies Act, CAP. 337 [R.E. 2002], with registration number S.A. 16950, as a non-profit organization. In 2019, KaYD complied under terms and conditions of Non-Government Organizations (NGO) Act, 2002 with registration No. 00NGOR2/000180 and it operates in Tanzania Mainland as per its governing constitution and laws of Tanzania.

The establishment of KaYD was driven by the need to respond to critical social challenges affecting Tanzanians, including but not limited to;

1. The increasing number of orphans and vulnerable children (OVCs) and unemployed youth.

2. Extreme poverty resulting from loss of productivity and limited access to poverty eradication programs.

3. Human rights abuses.

4. High prevalence of diseases such as HIV/AIDS and malaria.

KaYD is dedicated to improve the well-being of people in Kigoma Region and across Tanzania. We strive to build sustainable communities and empower households socio-economically through vocational and agricultural training for self-employment, expanding opportunities for future generations, and ensuring access to basic social needs. We also mainstream gender equity and disability inclusion in all our initiatives to reduce vulnerability at household and community levels.

Since its inception, KaYD has diligently worked to achieve its objectives and has reached key groups of beneficiaries—youth, women, and children through a variety of programs and services.

1. 1. Trained 2,213 youth, women, orphans, and people with disabilities in vocational and entrepreneurial skills, enabling self-employment and increased household income.
   2. Conducted HIV/AIDS awareness programs reaching over 18,000 young people, reducing stigma and improving knowledge on prevention, treatment, and healthy behaviors.
   3. Implemented community projects on environment, poultry, child labor, women’s land rights, GBV reduction, and health worker capacity, improving livelihoods, protection, and resilience of over 546,000 people

We take this opportunity to sincerely thank everyone who has supported KaYD over the years. Without your commitment and partnership, our achievements would not have been possible.

Looking ahead, we continue to invite stakeholders, partners, and well-wishers to join us in our mission to serve and transform society in Kigoma Region, and beyond. Our focus remains on ensuring that no one is left behind whether in access to employment, food security, skills for productivity, quality education, better environments, or improved agricultural productivity.

Executive Director,
KaYD
