Pact Inc. is an international non-profit organization with its headquarters in Washington,D.C. Pact serves communities challenged by poverty and marginalization because we envision a world where everyone owns their future. To do this, we build systemic solutions in partnership with local organizations, businesses, and government. Our goal is thriving and resilient communities where those we serve are heard, capable, and vibrant.
USAID Kizazi Kipya Project collaborates with the Government of Tanzania and Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to implement Economic Strengthening (ES) interventions. These interventions aim to ensure that parents and caregivers have financial resources to meet needs of vulnerable children and adolescents. This is through increasing Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) households’ capacity to cope with effects of various risks that they face and thereby improve their resiliency to future shocks. Kizazi Kipya’s ES interventions include linkage to provisional support for destitute households, establishment and management of savings and lending groups for OVC caregivers (currently, we have 9476 WORTH Yetu groups with 167,109 members), linkage to technical and business skills trainings, provision of business startup kits to most needy households and linkage of producers with markets for their products. In 2021, Pact Tanzania will provide business startup kits to 1,432 individual caregivers of under five Children Living with HIV (CLHIV) and 2 WORTH Yetu groups.
