About US

Our History
Shalom Centre was established in July 2005 with Registration Number 00NGO/0878. Located in Lesiraa village, Kisongo ward in the Arumeru District of the Arusha Region, our organization is dedicated to addressing issues of violence against children, gender-based violence, and preventing harmful cultural practices that affect children, particularly within pastoralist communities.

Our Work
Shalom Centre works towards its vision through a variety of programs that support children and their families. These include Family Reunification and Reintegration, where we help reunite children with their families when it is safe to do so and provide ongoing support to ensure successful reintegration; Education for Child Mothers, offering opportunities for child mothers to return to school and complete their secondary education; Early Childhood Development services for children aged 3-5 years from pastoralist communities; Vocational and Life Skills Training, equipping children and youth with valuable skills like soap making, basket weaving, embroidery, gardening, and financial literacy; Community Outreach to raise awareness about child protection issues and advocate for change within the community; and our Rescue Centre/Safe Home, which provides a safe haven for the most vulnerable children, offering shelter, food, hygiene support, psychosocial counseling, and educational opportunities.

Our Impact
Shalom Centre has made a significant impact on the lives of children in the Arusha Region. By providing vital services and advocating for change, we are helping to create a safer and more nurturing environment for all children.
