COMMUNITY & PROJECTS

The Tanzanite Foundation searches for ways to better the lives of indigenous communities. By stimulating demand for Tanzanite, we help sustain the industry’s economic viability and see that revenue is channelled back up the value chain to the source.

 

PROJECTS

Schools, Health and Community Centres

The Nasinyai Primary School provides an education for 420 children, with The Tanzanite Foundation’s funding and support. Other key community projects have included a Medical Clinic, a Community Centre and a Secondary School for boys and girls that is nearing completion.

Environmental rehabilitation

This remains a key priority for The Tanzanite Foundation as we continue to fund projects that help regenerate mining zones and encourage wildlife species to return to these areas.

Mine Site Water Supply

Fresh water from TanzaniteOne is now able to be pumped daily into the surrounding local community. A reverse osmosis plant ensures the water is free from excess fluoride which damages bone and tooth formation at a young age. Almost 5000 heads of cattle and 2000 villagers are able to access this water supply.
