Give Today!
Help save the lives of the most disadvantaged, at-risk Maasai girls
MGRC empowers young Maasai girls in Tanzania who are orphaned and/or living in abusive conditions to break the cycle of extreme poverty and oppression by providing them with a safe and nurturing new home with access to education, immediate and ongoing medical care, daily nutritious meals, and critical life skills training.
Our mission: to transform the lives of the most vulnerable, at-risk Maasai girls in Tanzania
Our philosophy: lend a hand up, not a hand out
Our work: offer Massai girls a sustainable path to break a debilitating cycle of child-mortality, extreme poverty, starvation, FGM, and forced child-marriage.
Through your support: MGRC provides a safe and nurturing environment for these girls to receive farm-fresh nutritious meals, an education, immediate and ongoing medical care, vocational and life skills training - empowering them to become independent, self-sufficient women.

I met Boniface Plasidi in Feb 2020 on a safari. Boni was instrumental in enlightening me to the plight of these girls. I hope I can give more in the future , but for now we will see how it goes. I hope this small amount helps.
