TAMCO is a community of Tanzanian Muslims in the DMV [DC, Maryland, and Virginia] area in the USA. Our community's outreach endeavors include giving back to those in need in Tanzania, specifically orphans. There are three main Orphanage Centers in Dar-es-Salaam [approx 200 orphans] that we have supported over the years. We support with clothing, education, skills training, and food supplies during Ramadhan and the two Eid celebrations. In addition to the orphanages in Dar-es-Salaam, we have also supported orphanages in Arusha, Dodoma, Kondoa, and Tanga. In Pemba and Zanzibar, we support widowed women who take care of orphans in their own homes. Prophet Muhammad [SAW] is reported to have said, 'I and the one who cares for an orphan will be together in Paradise like this,' and he held his index and middle fingers together [Sahih Al-Bukhari: Book 78, Hadith 36] We are a fairly small community of less than 300 members, with big hopes to help and serve the needy and under-served youngsters in Tanzania so they have the love, resources, and support to help them become productive members of society. Through this campaign, we hope to reach a wider audience to help make a bigger impact. Please join us!
