About Teretta Foundation
The Teretta Foundation was born out of a desire to make a difference in the lives of children who have been abandoned or abused. Founded by two passionate women, one from Ireland and one from Tanzania, we blend the best of both heritages to create a nurturing environment for children in need.
Our foundation is named after our grandmothers, Teresa and Etta, who instilled in us a deep sense of community and service. We are committed to giving these children a second chance at life, with love, dignity, and care at the core of our work.
Upcoming Projects to Fund
At Teretta Foundation, we are constantly working towards creating long-term solutions for vulnerable children in Tanzania.
Our upcoming projects focus on providing sustainable support, safe spaces, and educational opportunities for the children and the wider community. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on the horizon:
HOW YOU CAN HELP.
We cannot do this alone. To build a future for these children, we need your help. Whether it's through donations, spreading the word, or joining us on one of our trips to Tanzania, your support can change lives.
Together, we can give these children the future they deserve.
Help us give them hope. Help us give them a future.
